will laziness burn my amp down?! - Page 3

It's an insanely bad idea to have your life rely on the condition of some relay contacts.

Hi pentium100, are you aware of the power from mainsvoltage ?
In a shortcircuitcondition you easily get above 1000amperes,
enough to kill half of your equipment in these milliseconds before
fuse explodes...

Oh, you should rename your thread to something like this:
"will laziness burn me down?!"

Seriously.
