Here's another one for you. Many moons back, my old chap used to do small
scale theatrical lighting. The dimmers were - galvanised buckets full of
salt water connected to 240V live.
Shovels connected to the bulbs. Dunk the shovels = brighter lights.
Safe as houses, the shovels had wooden handles
Works equally well at 11Kv
