Default Darwin Award on it's Way


"Arfa Daily"

Aside from all this, if you are not greatly experienced working on
line-powered electronics with the covers removed, please be VERY CAREFUL
!!! Apart from the possibility of serious shock or death from accidentally
wrapping yourself around the line power circuitry, the high voltage supply
on a microwave oven is also potentially lethal. At the very least, it can
give you a very serious and painful shock, and if the mag is not drawing
any current, the high voltage capacitor can stay charged to a very high
voltage for a very long time after power is removed.

TAKE HEED !!!



** The OP is just begging for a Darwin Award.

So who are you to spoil his one moment of fame ??
