I took a 120v TO 12v dc adaptor which gives 500 mA.
I cut the plug, split the wires (exposed copper) and connected them to two nails which have a heating element wire between them. The nails are 7 inches apart. The heating element wire was from a salvaged toaster. The wire won't heat up.
Any idea why? Is the current not enough?
