Title: Lethal Voltage
Post by: djroge1 on November 27, 2008, 06:05:12 AM
Ok Noobie question here.

I've been reading about lethal voltages and the warnings and how to build a circuit that will dissapate the electricity.

Won't the charge dissapate by itself in a relatively short amount of time?

I've found with my OTS that the voltages decay quite quickly BUT you do need to keep your hands out until you've been round all the big caps with a multimeter and checked. If any hold any votage make up a discharge device (2w resistor with croc clips either end INSULATED , not sure what value I used but i copied it off a website where I read about discharging caps, just google it)
