Oh yeah, the tv was hooked up to it. That should be enough load, I should say.
I found my resistor value by RXI:
for the 687.5, that was found by:
687.5 X .160= 110
the 110 volts is the voltage drop I need (350-240), the .160 is the 160ma that the tv runs under load at the rectifier, and the 687.5 would be the resistance needed. I hope that makes sense.
I even gave this problem to a guy at work, he just started an electrical internship, and is learning the basics of DC. I simply gave him the current and the voltage needed to be dropped, and he got the same answer. He was happy to be working with a "real" problem, rather than one on paper.
