Without experience you should`nt touch the powersupply, ESPECIALLY WHEN
PLUGGED IN could be 120 volts AC(ALTERNATING CURRENT) coming out
(DANGEROUS).


Relax tiger... I know what the high voltages are, I worked with TV sets already.
There you have much more things to worry about than some stinking 120V ;-)


Of course keep in mind that a self respecting switcher will have 300 VDC
in it somewhere.
