I ordered two 10W 1K resistors (Have an 82 Ohm one).
Anyone could think of a good way to securing them inside the old shell? The insulation should withstand high temperature as the dissipation will be 6W inside it.
I will also attempt to bake the original Candohm to see if this would cure the leakage.
PS. Baked the Candohm for 2 hrs at 212F. The leakage I saw when I took it out (it behaved as a cap, started at 30k and kept going up into hundreds) became tens of Megohms.
Will try to solder in and see if it still imparts the voltage.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
