re: hornet wire wanted

Eddie, www.amcgremlin.com blanks out the e-mail address in messages, so
please forward this to Hornetracr! 

The wire he needs is the resistance wire. It's pretty generic -- it can
be found on the electrical isle of any auto parts store. It will be
marked "resistance wire" and may or may not have the ohms, and may not
be pink. An alternative is to use a ballast resistor. They range from
1.1K-1.5K ohms. Value shouldn't make much difference as long as it's in
that range. All resistance wires/ballast resistors are designed to cut
voltage to 6V until they warm up, then they will pass 12V. The actual
resistance just means it will warm a little faster or slower (1.1K will
warm a little faster than 1.5K). We're only talking seconds difference,
so it shouldn't make a difference in the exact value, but I bet 1.35K is
a common value.
