Ya, but you can crank up the amps, you can't really change the resistance.

I guess what I mean is, you can pretty much make any as hot as you want by turning up the current on your panel, right?
I'm just checking here.
You guys do understand that once you pull your glo driver off, electricity has nothing to do with plug temp.
It will almost immediately achieve it's working temp based on design and fuel type once the glo driver is removed.
The chemical reaction between element and fuel is what keeps the plug hot.
