I still remember the brown and green through-hole components on that PCB. I was young, maybe seven years old. I removed the case and tried to pick it up while it was still plugged in. BZZZZZZap! across part of my right hand. I clearly remember that extremely un-natural 60 Hz buzz. I think that vivid early memory has kept me from being lazy with electrical safety. EDIT: Attached a picture of one from the internets. --- End quote --- Is it made in China? :o |
