Yep, you are right.Ragnarok wrote:jimmy101 wrote:... only about 30 watts.
That should be joules, and it's probably more like 10 joules at best. 16 is the lower threshold for real danger. But 33kV is still a hard shock.
Or, energy in a cap = (1/2)cv<sup>2</sup>. For a 120uF cap at 330V (typical photoflash) that is 6.5 J.
