In getting my old Onan ready to sell, I thought it’d be good to take a video of me starting it and showing the voltage for prospective buyers. Instead, here’s the video of what happens when the hot lead of the AC probe slipped and touched the frame of the genny.

How much was the 'charge' for providing the entertainment? Seriously, glad you survived with your sense of humor intact! | ||

HEY!!! Are you the guy with the barbeque in the PELLA window ad? At least we know it has good voltage. | ||

Kinda reminds me when I closed the battery compartment door and jammed a wrench between the door and battery contacts. Now have new batteries. Bob V. | ||

Here's a shot of molten metal. Neither of the AC breakers below it tripped, BTW.  Yeah, Brian, the gas can's proximity has given me the woolies ever since. I'm standing only a few feet in front of my house, too, with wooden siding, soffits, etc. Gawd I'm a moron. | ||

My 1 year old enjoyed that video just as much as me. She was laughing and clapping. You should see if Excel Energy is hiring linemen. | ||

Hello Brian. Thanks for sharing. Always good for us all to get a reminder about the destructive potential lurking in our hobbies, and the fraility of the human condition when distracted. Glad you're ok! happy coaching! buswarrior | ||
