howstuffworks.com will no longer let you submit questions, so I'm asking you guys.



How is it that, when I touch both tracks (top and bottom, in my case) I don't get a shock? They are separated by some sort of plastic strip.



addition question, for bonus points:

How can a dog pull on a leash, and not choke? If I wrapped something around my neck, and pulled it backwards, I wouldn't be able to breathe.

I have a question for you? Are you intentionally trying to get shocked?

Try using your toungue in there next time. Let us know how that goes.

what the hell are tracks?? well i get shocked by my coils all the time, because i left the car running and was messin around with the battery and ZAP it got me like 12 times made my hart race pretty good!

no, when I was installing them, I turned them on to test them out, then adjusted the light positions, grabbing the track without thinking, and it didn't do anything.

Two possibilities:



1) The unit has a transformer in it, and the lights actually run on low (i.e. around 12) voltage.



2) The tracks provide something for the fixtures to slide in, but the actual electrical contacts are concealed within them.



I'm guessing the answer is "1"

Pull one of the bulbs and see what the rated voltage is.
