Resistors - looks like around 50-100 pieces, about a max of 1000W/10A rating per rack at a time (5-10 racks total would more than likely suffice, but the more the merrier). Looks like I have two quotes coming at me so far. A company rep was supposed to come by at about 2 today, but didn't show.
On the 20th I am going to Milwaukee to see one of the companys that looked at what we have and feels they would have no problem making what we need.
Basically I accomplished more on this today than I thought I would.
