Considering that a 12V battery has an internal resistance of 20 milliohms, the potential current through this thing would be approximately 600A.
It might be too hot to handle (pun intended)
Is it really 600 amps? That seems rather high. I do know that the one time I shocked myself on a car battery, it rocked my world much more than getting shocked by a 110v outlet.
Wait you can get shocked on a car battery??? I thought 12V was too low for you to feel.
