If you don't include a series resistor in the circuit, neon bulbs make great short circuits! I learned about current-limiting as a child when I poked the leads of a bare neon bulb into an electrical socket. There was sound and heat, and as the spots slowly faded from my vision, I remember being slightly puzzled by seeing how short the leads had become. |
