POWER IS EQUAL TO I SQUARED TIMES THE RESISTANCE VALUE. IF YOU ARE CHARGING 3 AMPS THROUGH A 10 OHM RESISTOR THE POWER WOULD BE 90 WATTS. 3X3 X R. THIS IS JUST AN EXAMPLE. IF YOU KNOW THE CURRENT AND THE RESISTANCE VALUE CALCULATE THE POWER AND USE A RESISTOR WITH AT LEAST TWICE THE POWER CALCULATED. A 1/2 WATT RESISTOR SOUNDS PRETTY SMALL AROUND A CHARGING CIRCUIT.
