    Looking to purchase a 'power harness" for my new t600 with the 3406E . Just wanna know if there is a difference other than price between buying the harness or just the resistors and soldering? If there isn't can someone tell me what kind of resistors (ohms) and to what wires thank you for your help

    From what I've read 150 is the highest you can go. I doubt you'd see much difference between 100 or 150 but since the resistors are the same price (under $2.00 for 5) I just went with the highest. I mean if you find a place like Radio Shack with a pack of 100's just look beside them 150's should be there.
