Welcome Aboard SoCalPat, You are definitely in the right place! Great camaraderie and tons of knowledge here. You...

Shit, I do believe thats Ghetto Cobbling. Damn, next thing ya know, I'll be using buckets of Kentucky Jelly to cool my water heater...

I have big spring loaded clips and they are soldered to some speaker wire and 2 big resistors. Don't remember what value they are but...

Try slowly opening a knife switch with 100 VDC and watch the fire ball. With care you can sustain a very nice arc, right up until it...

I'm doing wireless wires Joe :)

Just don't have miles of wire Perry...

Got it, thanks Joe.

Pretty much any old switch will do Perry...just rate it for the current involved. If you are discharging the 100V caps on a 700 with a...

As in the bulk caps in the amp under test? What's the issue? Should be easy to do.

That's what I was thinking. I'll make a nice cable with my big clips and the 2 resistors I have been using. I never even get a spark...

This gets a Perry Huh?? This bleeder will be attached to a capacitive load (the bulk caps in the amp) not an inductive load. As long...

Just the DC arcing when it is broken under load. As long as you "hold" until there is no current, the switch will be fine as said above.

That's what I thought. I wouldn't even hit the switch until the amp is off.

It is just a switch and a resistor

Big, gnarly knife switch!
