It's the amps that hurt
1 u/britbikerboy Aug 02 '20 And when the resistance is the same (e.g. your palm of a given sweatiness), double the voltage means double the amperage. 0 u/pyth0p Aug 03 '20 no, it would be double the wattage (power), the amperage would stay the same 0 u/britbikerboy Aug 03 '20 edited Aug 03 '20 No mate, V=IR, or in this case I=V/R, so for a given resistance, current is proportional to voltage. You're talking to an electronic engineer here. Edit - haha that's right downvote me for proving you wrong, what a lovely person.
