In High School a friend of mine accidentally grabbed both wires of a furnace transformer. I wasn't there at the time but the witness told me it was pretty scary. I had both terminals of a photoflash cap touch the palm of my hand once. Ouch. The only other HV sources I've been zapped by several times are Helium-Neon laser power supplies. They have a really nice snap. Terry Bowman, KA4HJH "The Mac Doctor" Male voice: "That accident over in Red Sector L destroyed another 63 personnel, giving them a total of 242 lost to our 195. Keep up the good work and prevent accidents. This shift is concluded."—THX 1138 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
