[ARC5] Ohmite Brown Devils

[Tom Lee]

Or, if you want to perform more refined testing, mount the resistor as 
you plan to use it, then adjust the power delivered until the 
temperature rises by about 40 or so degrees (C). That will usually give 
you a relevant (and somewhat conservative) measurement.
