In the first part of the video I go over how a dim bulb current limiter works and why you do not want to make one out of resistors. In the second part I do some practical demos of how a dim bulb works, the amperage differing wattage of bulbs let in, the difference between dim bulbs in parallel vs series and how it acts as a limited surge suppressor.
