Levi didn't provide pictures of the resistors, but it's reasonable to assume that they had the same structure as showed by Penon. http://coldfusionnow.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/105322688-Penon4-1.pdf The resistors are laid inside a "cog-like" pattern of troughs in the outer layer of a ceramic pipe (ie a cylinder with a cylindrical hole). This pattern is what shows as "bands" in the overheated November eCat (positive or negative, depending on your bias). The resister wire itself is clearly straight (not helical) strung down one trough (left to right), across to the next trough and back again in the opposite direction. I don't think this configuration will generate any magnetic field at all.
