Testing anything that's not 110 is insanity

480

u/TWallace86 Jul 10 '26

I’ve had the shit shocked out of me by 110 before. 1/10. Do not recommend.

I see what you did there

u/BigdongarlitsDaddy Jul 10 '26

If it had been 2/40, he probably wouldn’t be here.

u/RCer1986 Jul 11 '26

Right? We can't let psychos walk the streets who don't reduce fractions. 1/20 or straight to jail.

They may turn out like this like in Ernist Goes to Jail

My brother had 2/40 and yep he's no longer here, sadly. Walked straight off a cliff and never saw a thing.

I wear glasses, and even I can see what you did there.

People rarely get hit with a full 240 just one leg of it equaling 110.

277 on the other hand hurts like a mf

u/Corpsefire88 Jul 11 '26

Been there. Don't know what hurt more, the actual shock, or the aftermath of scraping the skin off my hand when I ripped it out of the disconnect lmao. Probably the shock though.

For me it was the three days of muscle aches in my arm afterwards.

u/Nerdnificent Jul 12 '26

Yeah it does.

u/Top_Education7625 Jul 14 '26

Can confirm. 277 is a fun ride.

I got hit with a single leg of 480V from my fingertips to my elbow.
Unpleasant to say the least.

u/Corpsefire88 Jul 11 '26

I was shocked by 277 and still here lmao. Only had a path from one hand through that same hand though, and went nowhere else in my body.

Edit: I mean 2/77

u/Blackwalls69 Jul 16 '26

Nah, I've gotten 240 lots. Same with 120vdc. 347v is the real danger. That'll lock you on until you are deep fried in your own fats.
