OK, never mind, they’re easily replaced. And no issues disposing of the body, that machine will probably vaporize the evidence, just make sure you have an exhaust fan.

I am wondering if you hit a light bulb with enough voltage to vaporize the filament will it over pressure the envelope enough to explode?

I don't know what the voltage would have to be to jump a light switch, but I can tell you that I've seen it. A few years ago, a tree fell in my sister's neighbor's yard and knocked the primaries down on top of her secondaries. So that was at least 12-13kV. It was ugly. Whole house had to be rewired.

When they publish things like this: "With that flash, every lightbulb in my house had exploded! The old lightbulbs merely popped and shattered. Those new lightbulbs (CFLs) were on fire! I could see smoke, smell burning plastic. I had no idea what happened." So, every lightbulb was on? If not the overvoltage jumped the switch? How much of an overvoltage event does it take to make a lightbulb pop like you see in movies? I have never seen it happen. Especially difficult when the switch is off. All this happened because of a smart meter? And later: "All the while I was experiencing more electrical issues and finding more damage. The craziest thing that occurred was I literally was shocked getting into the shower! I went to grab the nozzle to direct the water down and when I grabbed it, I literally got a jolt of electricity, my hand stuck, my knees buckled and down I went. I didn’t take a shower after that, needless to say. When I came downstairs, I heard water and could hear popping. The main water line from my well had exploded and electricity was sparking from it." http://www.dcclothesline.com/2015/06/27/smart-meters-fire-living-hell-and-bureaucratic-messes/ -----Original Message----- From: Robert Andrews Sent: Monday, January 2, 2017 11:41 AM To: af@afmug.com <mailto:af@afmug.com> Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Smartmeter Security question Seth, was that meant to be tongue-in-cheek? http://emfsafetynetwork.org/smart-meters/smart-meter-fires-and-explosions/ On 01/02/2017 10:25 AM, Seth Mattinen wrote: > On 1/2/17 09:39, ch...@wbmfg.com <mailto:ch...@wbmfg.com> wrote: >> Well, I guess if they change out the socket when they change the meter, >> they could put a big ass contactor in there. >> Note the statement uses the future tense “will have remote switching >> capabilities”.
