If you find a 12v to 6v Runtz resistor at NAPA, please post the part number here. This would surely be of interest to many people.

I have them as do the dealers mentioned in a previous post. NAPA does not sell them and only offers the ceramic resistors which are not a true solid state "voltage regulator like the Runtz. The Runtz came about because I got tired of fighting with the ceramic ones which proved to not be very accurate. Also the ceramic ones have no circuit protection like the Runtz...Thanks Randy | | |
