Lance,
all that you just posted is above my pay grade.
prolly cake for engineer like you but I’m not attempting that mess...
If I run into that situation where SRS light stays on, I’ll be coming to see you 😉

I’m running 1 watt resistors on the rear retractors currently wo issues. That info was from someone in Cali who has used that size and seemed ok.
If .5 or .25 watt would be safer, I’ll swap them out.

Nah, too big is never an issue, and if you have them lying around, sure use them. My experience in the electronics world says a 1/4w resistor is as common as dirt, so they're usually pretty cheap if you have to buy them. It's the high wattage (10 - 100+) ones that cost a grip and a half.

No reason to change if it' working. A couple of grams in weight loss is pretty trivial even for a bicycle weight weenie like me.

^^^
thanks for response.
I wasn’t worried about weight. Just wasn’t sure if any electrical related issues since they had a higher rating.
I’ll be leaving them in place.

Dual methanol tanks so I don’t run out while tracking

AF gauge replaced the clock
