This explains it pretty well:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electri...ity_of_a_shock The table in 2.1 shows the effect of different voltages. Higher voltages are going to burn you more. I've seen HV burns - they are f**king terrible. Can we not all just admit that we were wrong and Thomas Edison was right, and we should all be using DC :p It transmits better over long distances, stores better, and removes the need for those annoying wasteful transformers. Also has the darwinian effect of killing those stupid enough to mess about with it without knowing what they're doing. Daylight saving? Pah! Lets be the first state in Oz to convert to DC! JTL |

ok, so moving to Brissie, now having electricals delivered to NSW border changing the plugs and getting it sent up, think this could be the perfect solution:thumbsup:
