I had three electrocutions with mains voltage in about one hour. It was a dark and stormy night, when I decided to try again building my own half-bridge SMPS which had tendency to explode whenever I plugged it in. It was made of two boards: one contained EMI filters, bridge, fuse and HV electrolytic capacitors, other had high-side controller, transistors, transformer and everything else. When another transistor decided that it would rather choose new Pope instead of working, I got a bit angry. I grabbed something to drink in kitchen, returned and grabbed the board in order to smash it against the wall. I forgot to unplug it first. Ouch. Half a hour later, it was still dark and stormy night, I attempted to fix an ATX supply. When I was grabbing something from behind of supply, I touched the board with my forearm. Supply was plugged, of course. Ouch. Half a hour later, yes, it was a dark and annoying night, I was still working on the ATX supply. I unplugged the supply and was inspecting the traces, my nose and lower lip brushed solder pads of those two big caps that were charged to ~320V. I went to bed with my face hurting…

Toasters kindof have to use mains voltage, there’s a kilowatt or so of power in there. They do their best to keep the mains voltage away from hands, you’d have to deliberately put your fingers in to get shocked. Always remember to switch off at the wall before you stick the knife in to dig out your crumpets!

Well, once I replaced almost my entire PC ’cause I figured the motherboard was toast only to find out that my PSU died and would not power up my setup.

I’m not remotely an experienced sports shooter, so I can have trouble tracking fast-moving subjects under the best of circumstances. Already finding tracking fast action closely challenging, I found tracking fast action closely based on a series of static images delayed by 1/10 second or more was quite a bit harder still. After a little practice, I got better at doing so, but I sometimes found myself resorting to tricks like keeping both eyes open while shooting, or shooting in short bursts and using the time between bursts to get the subject properly framed with full-time live view again.

Thank you so much for posting this! One tiny correction: the “108V” reference should be 208V, and that applies only in business settings where three phase power is supplied to the building. In that case, the three phases are 120 degrees apart, resulting in any two yielding 208 volts. Residential split-phase service will 180 degrees out oh phase, resulting in 240V.

It’s just sensible to avoid risks where you can. If it doesn’t cost much extra, why not bother? Tinkering with a 3D printer is likely to take concentration away from other areas. Low voltage is intrinsically safe from electrocution. Don’t make things dangerous for yourself.

Level 2 charging systems come in two basic varieties, plug-in portable and wall-mounted units that are hard-wired directly to a home’s electric service. If you don’t have a closed garage and you’ll be charging the vehicle outside, local codes may require a fixed-mount unit. Otherwise a portable charger requires no professional installation, assuming you’ve added the 240-volt service line. This type can come in handy if you own two homes or will be staying with friends or family in another town and want to take the unit along for charging at your destination.

What’s the big deal? The heated rock for my herpetarium plugs directly into the wall. Nice cozy and warm. No shocks for me, no limp lizard either.

Solar water heaters are nice. Sadly, when one gets far north, the sun isn’t a common sight during the cold parts of the year.

FreeSync is available on the NU8000, Q6FN, Q7FN, Q8FN, and Q9FN. Once you’ve installed the latest firmware on one of those TVs, you can find it under Game Mode in the settings menu.

For every piece of equipment that lists MOCP and MCA, you are given the breaker size and minimum wire ampacity. As above, the MOCP is usually significantly higher than the MCA, but this is to allow for the spike in amp draw upon motor start.
