Well aren't brushless motors sorta AC... have we stumbled on the origins of the BB curse? Do streetlights come on/go out when you pass lol?

But Ben, I can touch 500,000+ volts from my Tesla Coil and nothing happens... It's AC.


hehe But it's all radio frequency AC, and not 60hz, which is what kills you, not the voltage, it's roughly 300 - 400 kHz frequency, so you just don't really feel anything.
