Power Resistor
Why don't you use a power resistor?
You can calculate with the formula: P = I² * R
P = power in Watt
I = current in Amps
R = resistance
By example: place an Amp meter in series with the resistor, when you read bij example 100mA (the same as 100/1000 = 0,1 Amps) 0,1 * 0,1 * 150 Ohm = 1,5W
Higher the wattage of the components in function of the above calculation and they can handle the heat.
Nice greetings ;-)
