Another electrical question from me...

125VDC@3A would probably turn this switch into a smoking pile and would easily put someone in the hospital (if not kill them)

while 125VAC is about what most of us have in our house here in the US and will do little more than sting you.

Sounds to me like you have no idea how little current it takes to stop a heart.

Back at ya.

Nice try though, but unfortunately still a fail.

I guess that being more familiar with the application of electrical gear has some benifits over the more technical side of this business. I probably should ( and wish I did) know as much as these other guys. But I'm smart enough to know what will work and what will not. And I enjoy helping my friends build their rigs. Enjoy your lights my friend "mister ed"
Well I guess that it is a very good thing that we are only dealing with 12v here.

Its amazing how wrong people are and they spread their wrongness all over the internet and infect average people with ignorance. People are too lazy to go to class and actually learn something. Theyd rather google it and just accept the first thing that pops up is fact.

When I was 13, I was zapped by 9,000 volts @ 1mA. It threw me over the back of my chair, but didn't kill me.

I've been in the electrical trade for a very long time. I have been up close and personal with 120v, 277v and a 15KW neon transformer. And, yes "CMA", it does sting ( to say the least ). But, like most, the current was not passed thru my heart. So I'll consider myself lucky.

I cant imagine how tesla felt back in the day. With all the knowledge available today we still fight back and forth trying to convince each other whats right and wrong. i bet tesla and edison really had it out in their hay day.

I really hope you dont get all your info from wiki.

Contact our system administrator, Kelley Anderson at info@ohms-law.info for any questions or comments.
Quoted from the link YOU provided:
Voltage (V): Measured in Volts, also known as Electromotive Force (EMF).
and by the way.....since you provided that link....READ that statement I just quoted from that link you provided one more time....."VOLTAGE (V) also known as Electromotive (E)"......would mean that V is equal to E, thus the equation I originally presented as Ohm's law and you tried to critique goes to give E=V=I/R. Thus V and E are equivalents and are therefore interchangeable.
You guys not only insulted Joules by calling his law, "Ohm's Law"....but you follow that up by insulting one of the greatest Electrical engineers of all, Nikola Tesla and the Physicist Wilhelm Eduard Weber by referring to "Electromagnetic" force as Voltage.
Please keep going.....let's see if you can manage to insult Faraday, Joseph Henry and Maxwell next with your feeble minds.
HACKS....F'ing HACKS!!!!
