That wasn't clear.  I mean a supply running significantly below its rated load.

And that's just wrong.  Black green black would suggest five ohms,
not fifty; and it would be green black gold in that case anyway, not
black green black.  No resistor code in US usage (EIA code) starts
with a black band.  I should do this when I'm awake, or twenty years ago.  ;-)


The EIA code is here:
