  And at 110v, thats a risk I'm willing to take. I wanna note, I worked as an FSE for a telecom, I've been 'bit' more than once by 130v, and by 160v B+ in shit, the sparks from crossed neutral are fine. Anyone who is deeply concerned can buy an isolation transformer.

    110v can fuck you up. Don’t take your own advice please. At least no one else should. Isolation transformer will only stop you getting killed one of three ways. Worth backing my experience up as well. Ex EE covering RF and power in defence sector. There is no room for arrogance or assumptions in dealing with safety.

      • gumboza 4y ago
        I wouldn’t. Simple.
