discharge capacitor with a light bulb
https://forum.allaboutcircuits.com/threads/discharge-capacitor-with-a-light-bulb.163670/
Am I correct in understanding I can connect a 120v 60w bulb to a 440VAC capacitor and a the bulb voltage rating does not apply? Is the only consequence that a 120v bulb will burn out sooner or would the filament actually blow quickly not allowing the capacitor to discharge or somewhere in-between?
