A medical grade defibrillator used to be heartbreakingly expensive. The ones they have now are for the general public to use. Connect the leads, press a button and wait. I resist looking at the price. It is beyond the ability of my social security budget, I'm sure. Rather than weep, I do what I can.
Don't chuckle, capacitors, any capacitors are treasured around here. The bigger the better. What am I saying? KEPS nuts, GOOP adhesive, 20M 1/2 watt resistors, they are all impossible dreams. BTW the MINIMUM cost of a tiny envelope worth of stuff is like ninety dollars via DHL. I have to rely on friends who go north once in awhile. The converter would have cost 380+ dollars to ship only to start a massive squabble with Mexican Customs duty.
When I hobble down the street and a person not well known to me comes up, grabs my hand and shakes it and pats me on the back then says "We want you to come to our little fiesta on Saturday" I get little attacks of allergy. Damned eyes...
