Hi mickeymoose,
Looks like you need a bunch to put in parallel, or some higher rated ones that have a lower resistance. The standard load is 8 R, with 4 R being used for car amps and the better home / MI amplifiers.
Don't ask me, I bought the proper ones.

I'm going to test some heater elements from a toaster oven. I did a quick test and it seems to be relatively stable but I want to make a video of it so perhaps ill post that here as private for now- tommorow I will see about that. Not too sure of the wattage from that but I guess all will be shown shortly...
Thank you Micky for taking the time to post your results and findings here!!
