Well, are you ready.........for a S.A. answer?
About 9 of them in parallel might make a good alternator 'excite' resistor (quite a wad).
Then about 12 or 13 in parallel might make a decent ballast resistor (an even bigger wad). But this wad might smoke as it good for only 12 or 13 watts and a ballast could see perhaps 16 watts under ign ON, engine stalled conditions. But, don't stall it & leave it on!

And those are really big 'wads'. Hope you bought in bulk.
AND, I think you will be A-OK on power....no smoke. :lol:
