My Brake-Lite attenuator maxes out at 11db. Does any know how many output watts I should be expecting from max setting when using a 15 watt amplifier?
Thanks.

Oh No! I'm going to Geek Out! For every 3 dB, you're cutting the power in half. So, at 3 dB attenuation, you're at 7.5 watts, 6 dB - 3.75 watts, 9 dB - 1.875 watts, & (with a little math) at 11 dB - 1.2 watts. So, you'd be just about a watt if we assume the amp's putting out 15 watts at full power. (I think I did that all correct.)
