the problem is....you never when and where it will strike :-) -----Original Message----- From: Travis Goodwin [mailto:tgoodwin@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, September 06, 2002 5:00 PM To: 'DMCForum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: RE: [DMCForum] Question for BTTF experts So, could it be pulled off with a bolt of lightning. AMPS x VOLTS = WATTS My research shows that a bolt can carry up to 30,000 AMPS. To produce 121,000,000,000 WATTS, a strike would need to produce 4,0333,333 VOLTS. This is very possible since a bolt can carry several hundred million volts.
