DIY Capacitor Discharge Tool for Electronics Repair

Welcome to SquatchLab.

In this video, I build a simple capacitor discharge tool for safely discharging low-voltage capacitors commonly found in consumer electronics and power supplies.

This tool is designed for repair bench work involving devices under approximately 400V DC and is intended as a safer alternative to directly shorting capacitors.

Topics covered:

Choosing resistor values
Safe discharge practices
Basic capacitor safety
Bench repair workflow
Tools and materials used

⚠️ Safety Disclaimer:
Capacitors can retain dangerous electrical charge even after devices are unplugged. Always verify voltage with a properly rated multimeter before handling components. This video is intended for educational purposes only.
