Subject: [Vo]:BB motor filament heating test for Harry Veeder
[snip]
I ran a quick test. Starting out
cold it took 8 seconds to heat the resistor to orange. Doing it
again, a few seconds later, it took only 3 seconds. The resistor
apparently takes a while to cool down even after it is no longer
red
or orange.
Were both these second tests of heating time conducted while the motor
was not running?

Yes.
I've been running a number of other tests, but haven't had time yet
to assemble my notes and document them for web/list use.
Best regards,
