Default Re: Lamp limiter plus Variac tip

I suppose if Al measured the resistance of his own body and built a substitute using resistors, it would be safe to test out his theory!

Another thought is whether the resistance of the body varies with the applied voltage, like our well-known waxy capacitors. Only one way to find out, I suppose...
