[NSRCA-discussion] Max volts

[Atwood, Mark]

Actually very true.  But picture someone trying to save weight and combining two 6s packs to one connector and accidently "touching" something in the process.  That will pull a 200amps peak @ 50V...enough to get crispy.

But everyone knows it is current, not voltage, that kills. :-)

(I am just joking, BTW.)

Biggest problem with raising the voltage is that 40v is generally considered the max non lethal voltage.    You'll be hard pressed to get a voltage increase for general safety reasons.

I'm sure that's why the current limitation  is in the general guidelines in the first place.
