tl;dw: "dont discharge caps with a screwdriver"

Reason?

volts <:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>

That's a retarded reason

deus volts <:deus_vult:382980746727522305> ☢

youre not supposed to short high-voltage caps without resistance inline

if you see sparks youre doing it wrong

Oh yeah, don't short the resistance

Only the cap

typo, sry

Sparks are fine

im learning how to do the job the right way, not how the job is done in fucking india

Like, I'm sure that the video is correct

But they probably said something that applies to that specific circuitry

yes

tube amps and such

But in a way that it becomes a rule of thumb where it isn't needed

best to learn the right way on lower voltages

if i get a small shock or spark ill know im doing it wrong THEN, not when im doing my first tube amp

Ok I don't know about them tubes

It's perfectly ok to short caps

your advice is unsafe because you dont specify a voltage where it becomes bad advice

That's what they are made for

It never is a bad idea

<:thronk:441701565607444482>

As long as it doesn't melt your screwdriver

For the caps themselves

its a bad idea anytime youre working with high enough voltages

<:triggered:382980748115968000>

Voltage doesn't even matter here

If anything current

im not going to ask you if the monitor PSU caps are too smol to worry about it, because your advice is already bad

<:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>

i'm memeing about the deadly volts

and as for the rest i am serious

My advice is correct, We just can't understand each other<:shap:497652686603288576>

teach the right way first
