In Reply to: RE: 300 volts across a 5.5K resistor is 16 Watts & 55mA, that is mad. posted by Chip647 on July 21, 2014 at 19:57:41
Ah come on Chip, where is the magic or adventure in "design flaws"? Life is full of the mundane and everyday; we need to let our imaginations have a little fun once in a while. : )

Just make sure that your transformer can handle the current and your resistor is rated +50 watts or it will catch fire. If you are using one of those aluminum cased resistors, they do need heatsinks. You will also need lots of ventilation as you have now built an easy-bake oven.
Not too worry Chip, I am abandoning this solution after reading your post and several others like it. That's why I asked the question.
