It's kind of a lot of power (hundreds of kilowatts for a panic stop from 60mph), so a reliable resistor bank would probably add more weight/bulk than it buys in

It's kind of a lot of power (hundreds of kilowatts for a panic stop from 60mph), so a reliable resistor bank would probably add more weight/bulk than it buys in reduced brake wear.
