Philco model #20
#11

When I rebuild these, I use 1/2W 250 Ohms, but I only use them because this is what I have.
These do not dissipate anything at all under normal circumstances.

I would actually soldered them back (I usually save them as this is some sort of hi-ohm wire) but I would then have to pot it (as it is not rigid) plus I do not know how well this wire solders; this is why I just use axial small ones.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
