Has anyone here built and used Bob Roberts' SafeBack discharger?

Sorry, but you are wrong, XtraSmiley .

Please discharge the monitor again before you hook it back up.  I learned the hard way. I was re-attaching the suction cup and using a screw driver to squeeze the clip together and my hand slipped from the handle of the screw driver to the metal shaft.  Wow, talk about a jolt!

I'm sure it wasn't full voltage, since I had discharged it already, but for some reason, a charge can build again. In my situation it had been several hours that the monitor was sitting.

Anyway, even if you've discharded a monitor, go ahead and do it again just before you mess with the suction cup.

Oh, sorry dude, yeah I never thought of that b/c I never had any problems with hooking it up later, I thought he meant during the disconnecting part.  You only have to do it the way I described.  Now after you are done hooking it back up, I've never done it again but I'll take your word that it's not a bad idea, you just have to be really carful to not scratch the glass.
