Default Unusual functions of cheap parts


A simple 1.0 K Ohm or so carbon film resistor placed across the
line makes a very nice display after a couple of seconds. They also
make a handy fuse to trigger a little firecracker when used as a
"surprise" for some unsuspecting technician placed across his load
behind the workbench when he turns it on in the morning.
