Post by: DD1975 on February 06, 2012, 20:54:21 PM
Ok possibly going a bit far with the title, but interesting possibilities with this one:

Not sure I want a garment that can produce '100s of volts' that can run a defib.

Have been keeping an eye on wearable computers though. Batteries were the main problem so with this, get used to seeing them more and more.

It'd be good if you could plug your phone into your jacket to charge it whilst walking around on a sunny day.

Being able to put you phone in your pocket and have it charge wold be great, having you shirt electrocute you would be a bad thing  :D

I could just see it... Some bloke, walking down the road, minding his own business, gets splashed by a passing car, only to fall to the ground, twitching and moaning. :P

I must apologies, my "current" "capacity" for "resistance" was insufficient  "amp" made me use a pun.

The amp was one of my typos and should have been and  ;D

"ohm" dear, "watt" are we going to do, I hope this is just some "Phase" we are going through.

If we carry on like this I may "overload|" my brain  :worship:

P.S. Data I think you are missing a headslap smiley!!!!!

I re"fuse" to believe these puns. "reactance" to this method of humor is leaving me "choked".

The "power factor" is left wanting and completely off the "grid".

:no-no:

I "Diode"-nose a high "Resistance" to the "Current Flow" within this thread, it appears to have little further "Conpatisence" as a "Conduit" for further puns and, therefore, should be deemed to be in the "Can-Buss".  :D

All of these puns are shockingly horrid, though it's nice to get a small jolt of humor every once in a while. We should all consider trying to resist the temptation to induct a little more humor, since our collective capacity for crafting puns (including these ones, here) is rather limited.

{note that I avoided the obvious pun of saying "ohm my god, these are horrible!"}

Oops? I guess I didn't avoid it after all. :P
