Subject: RE: BS: Shock Risk from AA Batteries/Water?
Anyway, for those of you who may some day need to think about real current or real power:

VOLTAGE = CURRENT*RESISTANCE (V=IR)

POWER=CURRENT*CURRENT*RESISTANCE=VOLTAGE*RESISTANCE (P=VR or I^2R)
RESISTANCE=VOLTAGE/CURRENT (R=V/I)
CURRENT=VOLTAGE/RESISTANCE (I=V/R)

V is expressed in VOLT
RESISTANCE is expressed in OHMS
CURRENT is expressed in AMPS
POWER is expressed in WATTS

And that's about it. I think....

Editorial review always welcome.
