My old favorite saying was “it only hurts for a little while, it just hurts like hell while it’s hurting”.

If I’d been there I’d helped you out, no supervision required. Just for the record clean, dry intact leather gloves are safe for live work up to 600 volts AC.

So now I have to ask, did your sensor need a ground? Show me a photo (photo cell?) of your sensor. Paul

Don't think I'm not appreciative...I am one lucky dog, yet today I needed to do some hot wire electrical work replacing a light sensor for my apt carports...so I stopped and looked it up, the advice was, Don't be doin` hot wire electrical work at all, and certainly don't believe leather gloves will protect you....

Crap, crap, crap....since my heart is more or less half BladeRunner electrical, I decided it not wise to do this work...so I had a neighbor do it (LOL) while I supervised....

Everything is working and my undue (?) paranoia assuaged (grin) Traveller

PS I've had recently 3 acquaintance with leader pacemakers having problems becoming detached, etc...maybe 25th century medicine is okay

Pasadena, CA...Los Angeles Adjacent...this whole section is being taken over by medical buildings...good medicine to be sure...I was returning from a heart adjustment...( remember, the batteries are...actually bolted into the inside walls of my heart! Hex nuts...) they decided, mostly without me, to up the voltage (!) in my left ventricle battery...and increase my possible pulse rate to 120bpm...in both the ventiriclel and atria batteries.

Sooooo....I said to the Abbott Lab people, (who I love, seriously), maybe this is not a bad idea...and said, We've already done it, your heart has been adjusted).

Agrrrr....well...to reward myself, I took some pictures, though not San Francisco.
