  • 5e3 Bleeder

    I am wanting to size a bleeder resistor for my 5e3 build. Anyone have a sizing recommendation (Ohms/Watts).

    220k 2W across the first filter cap is pretty standard for a permanent installation.

      I do not have a 220k 2watt resistor handy. Could I get by using a 1M 1/2W Resistor for the bleeder?

      It seems it would increase the discharge time by about 4x.

        Do you have 2 x 470k 1W in parallel. That would be fine as well.
