you still got that whole setup? you should get some of those 1.5 - 3 volt dc motors that they use in toys and light them up. i do that with 12 volts and find it entertaining. btw, anybody wanna lick those wires with that voltage? 2700 volts ought to be fun.

Yeah I've still got it but I'll probably never touch them again. The video is a tiny portion of what we did and when I looked back at the whole video I realized how dumb we really were. I mean hell, we wrapped a 2700v cable around a plastic hanger to move it around! haha...meh, fun while it lasted/glad I survived.

How big is the full file???

Reminds me of a few years ago, me and some friends had like 36-40 of them....we hooked them all together in a series......and there were some hotties around, and my one friend is a serious hard ass when woman are around. So we told him to lick his fingers and touch the ends.....LMAO Dumb ass shot back about 4 feet and landed on his kiester and all the girls just laughed at him......I guess the weren't too impressed with that like he thought they would be????


Remember though, it's not the voltage, it's the amperage that has the real kick to it. How many amps is 2700 Volts?

Haha funny story...The full file is around 15meg. And I'm not sure how many amps there are in it. One webpage says one 9v battery has 500mAH (milli-amp hours) and we had about 300 of them. Comes out to 150,000mAH which if I'm reading right means if something was drawing 150amps the batteries would last one hour. Hrm...Dunno.

nah, in series you still had a mere 500mAH.

in parallel volts stay same, amperage multiplies

in series amperage stays the same voltage multiplies

If your amperage was multiplying you would not be in the same place you started after touching the wires together. (ie it would be like a small, VERY POWERFUL lightning bolt)
