The Pain of Electricity (AC versus DC)

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 03/07/2013 09:17 AM | source: | 25 comment(s)

Have you always wondered if you electrocuted yourself, which type of electricity would hurt more: AC (Alternating Current) or DC (Direct Current)? Wait no more!

I've had my fair share of shocks over the years, 110v wall power being the most common, i rarely found them incredibly painful. I did have the unfortunate opportunity to have the capacitors from a SoundStream Reference 1000 subwoofer amplifier discharge themselves into my finger... which actually burnt the hell out of my finger tips and threw me backwards.

The most painful shock i've received had to be a few years back when a friend of mine thought he was going to have a laugh by shocking me with his girlfriends tazer (the non-shooting type) that was very low on power. Well... it turned out she had changed the batteries earlier in the day, which resulted in me getting shocked to living hell, as well as my broken nose for my "former" friend. LoL!
