I found this picture on the ‘net. This is supposedly the inside of a Green Bullet. There seems to be a resistor between the red and black wires. I have a similar 99G86 element in my Jt-30 (without this resistor.)
What’s the resistor for? Impedence? Altering sound? Is it original or a mod?
The resistor was there to make voice more intelligible in noisy environments. On a 99A/B/G/H86, I recommend removing it always. You will get a hotter element with more mojo. On a 99S556 (the dual impedance element from a 520D, then I suggest removing it if you will be using a volume control, otherwise not - as that element is harsher sounding and the resistor helps tame that. ---------- /Greg
