[TriEmbed] Current & Voltage

[Grawburg]

I know it's always, "it's the current that will kill you, not necessarily the voltage", but surely there is a reasonable way to determine what the "killing" combination is.  I've got a book that says 700 mA could do you in if it finds a path through your heart.  Is this really suggesting that if I take the 5VDC, 850 mA power supply I use for my Raspberry Pi, hook one lead to my big toe and the other lead to my ear lobe I may end up dead? When we discuss current & voltage in my RPi class next week I'd like some more information to pass on.


Thanks,
