Interesting, but that resister is not capable of handing the 15 amps that Jack says it can (at least in his larger devices, and he does say that voltage is of no importance except for the possibility of arcing through the insulation to adjacent circuits). I have run them in series with the B+ secondaries of rather large PS transformers with 30 amp outputs (running a pair in parallel for current capacity). The units run cool, and have never blown, indicating to me that the ceramic units are handling a lot of the load.Rather than being a 'superconductor' I believe the purifiers are simply accelerating the current transfer functions. As I said earlier, they seem to work at it's best after an inductive device, which normally retards phase on the current more than on the voltage. I believe the purifiers work by placing the current in phase with the voltage, by accelerating the current flow, not voltage. Large caps are often installed on commercial user lines in order to improve the power factor, but generally they work by retarding the current to be in phase with the voltage (easy to do since power is a nice fairly even 60hz).
Jack, incidentally, in my conversations with him, has never claimed that his devices are 'superconductors'. He does make the claim that they can achieve 90% the speed of light for electron flow through them, however. He does say that superconductor technology led to their development.Again, YMMV, but unless you actually try them and do some active experimentation, it is hard to believe. I laughed myself when I first read about them. After many months and years of working with them, I am quite impressed. But then I also claim absolute polarity is audible, too, and many vehemently disagree with that.
