My buddy works at an extremely small (4 guys and a room) computer parts recycling and disposal place. They want to be able to take apart old monitors but are afraid of the potential shock from the main caps. I am told that the voltage can get up to 25,000 volts (I'm not sure of this value) and the capacitance is between .005uF and .01uF. They just use a screwdriver to discharge the voltage, which sounds not too smart.
Does anyone know a good resistor (power / ohm value) to use for something like this. Does anyone have any other good ideas?
Thanks.
