E=IxR and Vanner [RE-wrenches]

[Jeffrey Wolfe, Global Resources]

Actually, isn't it "resistivity" that stays constant? Actual resistance 
decreases (i.e. at less current flow there is less voltage drop.) And yes, 
environmental factors do need to remain constant....

I'll gladly be wrong on this one, but hate to admit it until I'm sure....

And you don't even want to begin to hear my stories from the days of the 
old Vanner / BP-40 unit. But I'm sure there are no similarities with the 
new equipment... (At least I hope not for your sake!)
