Dummy load that I could borrow


 

Does anyone have a dummy load that I could borrow that is greater than 500 watts? I need to do some calibration with my new amplifier and the manual states to do the test connected to a dummy load. The one I have only goes to 300 watts.

Yes, have a 1kw "cantena" you may use.. I work part time at the 4C NAPA and you could pick it up there Friday? 9 to 12? ,,,,1 to 6? or Sat 8 to 5 or Sun 10 to 5. No rush to return it.

John:
I only work F,S,Sun but I could take it in tomorrow and leave it on the "Will Call shelf" by the front inside stairs with instructions to Mark the M,T,W,TH assistant manager for you to pick up and when you are done with it you could drop it off any day and let him know to put my name on it and put back on the will call shelf. There is no rush at all even if it is several weeks or a month. I am the assistant Mgr on F,S,and Sun. The address is 317 Pronghorn. The NAPA store just south of Murdochs on Jack Rabbit by four corners..That should work for both you and me.Emoji I will take it in tomorrow and leave it even if I do not hear back from you before I leave in the morning.

There is a time usage curve on the can as it is not 1kw for continuous use. If it gets real hot you can set it outside to cool off more quickly.
