An insane You tube 'demonstration' of the results of series connecting 240+ 9V "PP3" cells. The commentator has absolutely no idea whatsoever that he is poised on the brink of death throughout the whole video. AND, his resul;ts are stunningly feeble, considering he has over 2000V on hand. Apart from some nicish arcs. Here, stand aside, let ME show you what you can do with 2000 V ... :-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3D8hwLHdBTQ7s DO NOT try this at home. The clip lead insulation could rupture, the surface could track, random anythings could explode with immense violence and throw misc material at highh velocity. Measuring 990 V DC on a semi random digitial multimeter AND holding the leads. Such luck this guy has. If you can educate any of the up and coming generation that such things are able to be lethal at any moment please do.
