You only need 10mA through your chest to kill you, you can do the math. I have to admit, I don't know anybody that's been killed by a TV, but I won't be finding out myself. I use plenty of caution when working on TV's and monitors, and usually suggest to Internet taught techies to leave the case intact. You obviously have the experience to tackle such a job, but I'm pretty sure that most do not, they usually bring it over here...
I'm pretty sure crack won't kill me either, but that doesn't mean I don't take it seriously. Myth or otherwise. ----- Original Message ----- From: "the pickle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Quadlist" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, July 28, 2002 7:10 PM Subject: Re: Monitor > When someone can prove (quote me a news story, please) that a person has > been killed by a TV tube, I'll believe it.
