RE: G-05 power resistor tolerance?

Those big resistors typically have a +/- 10% rating anyway, so I doubt it
will. If you really want to I guess you could do two in series, with a 3rd
paralleling the other two, and the resistance theoretically ends up at 2.0
ohms assuming they are 0%.

I suspect they are current inrush limiters just to prevent sudden run away
currents on switch on, so again I doubt it matters if 2.2 or 1.9.

Subject: VECTOR: G-05 power resistor tolerance?

Hi all,

I have an untested G-05 805 that I would like to test but it has a few
parts missing from the deflection PCB, none of them are that hard to find
except I cannot find an exact replacement for one part: R720 - a 10W 2ohm
resistor.

All the UK based component suppliers that I use only seem to list 10W
resistors in the 2.2ohm range ... will this matter or is its value critical?

Any thoughts or opinions would be welcome!
