Look, A new trick! :)

If it was 1 Ohm, you would only be able to get 1.5A out of it.

I don't know about AA's, but you can get a couple of hundred amps from a NiCd D cell. But it has to be an "industrial" type; consumer versions have the internal resistance deliberately increased to limit the short-circuit current.

It gets even better. When the battery wears out you can recharge it by just plugging the ends of the prongs into an AC outlet, with everything connected as shown. You can even watch Maury Povitch while it's charging. Better still, invite Maury.

Ooops that right.. :P I was thinking fictional battery that compensates for internal resistance. :)

Even the el-cheapo garbage D NiCds are good for about 30A shorted. Still respectable considering they're going to melt down anyway.

Better still, you can recharge it but shoving up the backside of the original poster. Since the sun shines out of his arse, direct insertion I'm guessing would give best results.

Circuits blowing up... batteries melting down. When are you going to stop with the bullshit, boy?

Circuits fail, and batteries CAN explode, but very likely would NEVER "melt down".

Tell us, asswipe... when did your brain melt down?

Oh... that's right! It must have been at some point before your bent perception allowed you to think that you tube was "the next ebay".

So, uh, what happened to him after that?

It sounds like we have a disgruntle poster :)

Did you forget to take your meds today?

Have you ever met anyone who was absolutely and truly gruntled?

The anode voltage is created from the horizontal output and a voltage multiplier for the last two decades. (from the horizontal output for about 7 decades). Not from the main power supply.

Hot spit. You got one right.

irrelevant trash.

You're a goddamned retard. I used to make anode supplies that were separate entities, and were NOT "created from the horizontal output", you retarded f*ck.

You're a goddamned idiot, boy.

You're a goddamned retard. Your observation was retarded. Your capacity to make such observations is blurred by the fact that you are too goddamned retarded to do so.
