end low when the resistor is hot), so perhaps I'm wrong here
But that is quite a difference. Mine don't differ at all when in use or not.
The 9-10 Ohms explains why there is "5.0" written on both of the NTC's BTW

I wonder if they mean that's their room temperature resistance, or running-hot
resistance.
These were also inrush limiters? Monitors also use these things in theirThe NTC thermistors I've salvaged from a whole range of scrap PC monitors
have ranged from a few hundred Ohms to as high as 12k at room temperature,
the running resistance is usually 5 Ohms or less.
