JimH,

You really need to remove your nose from John's ass. And he vis-a-vis
to you.
Actually you have it all wrong as you have not been here long enough to
see
the real pattern of him puppy dogging all my posts. After he rejected
my
request to stop it he is now receiving what he deserves.

Actually, I have been around this NG for 7-8 years in one form or
another.

Reggie?

Didn't someone already indentify him as Jackoff?

You guys may learn to read headers one day, eh?

For people who pride themselves in being so computer literate, they sure
lack some basic skills.

The worst shock I ever received was from a high power, high voltage DC power

Same here - lower voltage and amperage - 10Kv at about an amp.

Started at my right wrist and out through my finger tips.

What's funny is that every once in a while, the hand feels like it's
twitching really fast, but you can't see it. Another interesting side
effect is that it never seems to warm up - it always feels like it's
cold, but it's not.

Weird.

That's why you should always be wearing your grounded wrist strap. :-)


After a while I just got used to being the ground.

The worst shock I ever received was from a high power, high voltage DC
power supply. 12,000 volts with current capacity of 1.5 amps. Happened
at the first job I had after leaving the Navy. I remember my hands
feeling like basketballs, then I went out like a light. Woke up in the
ambulance on the way to the hospital.

They checked me out, EKG, all that stuff, then determined I was fine other
than some minor burns on my fingers.

OUCH.....

Now a Marine would never pull a stunt like that. :-)

Wanna bet? :)

I saw a magician (I think it was the Mindfreak guy) get hit with
20,000,000 volts, but they never said how many amps.

I don't know how true this is, but I've been to a trauma seminar where
the presenter told of a guy who had 100 Kv go through him at a very
low amperage - like milliamps and walked away with only burn marks to
show for it.

Couldn't prove it by me.

This biggest single contributor to the horizontal scanning frequency
noise
came for a poorly constructed flyback transformer.


Flashback memory time. I don't know *how* many TV sets, mine and friends,
that I kept alive for a while longer by painting the flyback transformer
with that red, high voltage "Klyptol" stuff. It usually stopped the
hissing
and squealing for a while but eventually the transformer would carbon
track
to ground.

I also would *like* to forget how many of those TV sets threw me on my
rear
because the high voltage section wasn't discharged.

When you think about it, all this new, low voltage computerized stuff is
kinda boring. No challenge at all.

I just gave away a Sony 27" color that I bought in Korea 28 years ago. The
color may have faded somewhat, but it was still good. It had been packed
and shipped about six times. I can't believe how well that thing was made.

Wow, how generous of you...........a 28 year old television. Was that a
Christmas gift to your best friend?


JimH,

You really need to remove your nose from John's ass. And he vis-a-vis
to you.

Not sure what the vis-a-vis means, but I've not responded to JimH in a few
days now.

I am sorry, I just checked again and he only claimed it was 3 million
volts and he wore a Faraday cage (sp). I don't know if it is real or
not but here is the video:

Yeah, but the bleeders were such high resistance the HV usually destroyed
them within a short time. They were just open spark gaps after that...(c;
