Resistance Dimmers

Believe it or not they had noisy, hot resistance dimmers back when I was in elementary school on the stage. They were original - from the 1930s, still in use 50 years later! They aren't that bad but at 50% dim of a 500 watt load they discard nearly 200 watts of heat per channel. At lower or brighter dimming they aren't nearly as inefficient. Very crude technology but reliable as witnessed by the fact they were still using 1930s technology in the 1990s.
