Who needs safety gear when you have a $0.50 neon tester and sheer confidence?"
Testing live single-phase mains (~230V AC) with nothing but a cheap screwdriver tester and a dream.
(And before the comments roast me: yes, I know domestic line-to-neutral is ~230V, but the spark factor still feels like 440V line-to-line energy!)
No FULL BRIDGE RECTIFIER, no rubber gloves, just pure chaotic switchboard energy and a tiny orange glow keeping me company.
Rate my setup on a scale from 1 to "Mehdi getting shocked by his own workbench." How’s the cable management looking? ⚡
