The worst part of it was trying to wash the stuff off! It didn't come off until the end of the day after washing my hands vigerously 6-7 times..
The worst worst part of it was that it fried one of the connections inside the pack so I had to open it up and re-solder the joint. I wan't sure if it would hold up at first but it can take the limited 20a the bike pulls.  |
Wow 66V?! That is actually high enough to electrocute you...
I'm sure it was burned into your skin which is why you couldn't wash it off easily. Thankfully I haven't fallen victim to a large discharge like this (yet). I do have plans for a rather large railgun though...
