Forum Overview :: Xenophobe :: I think you could actually probably really hurt yourself.

[quote name="Fullofkittens"]I know that the big capacitors in guitar amps carry enough juice to hurt or possibly kill somebody... I've seen them discharged before, there's a flash of white light and a sound like a gunshot. I can certainly imagine an arcade game carrying a similar amount of punch. I would read up on how to discharge the components before trying to just yank them out.[/quote]
