I am building the the 16 ohm 40 watt resistors all from 16 ohm 12 watt parts. I did read all the Gilmore does the Kama Sutra posts below and remain a little confused. But then the Kama Sutra lost me after the 40th or so position. Maybe a drawing would help the math challenged?? Do you combine two 16 ohms resistors in parallel and then hook the ends of the two parallel sets in series or do you hook two 16 ohms in series and then fuse the ends to make a parallel??
