I would add one thing: NEVER trust a volt meter that reads zero. What
you want is to see the meter read full voltage, then slowly decay to
zero when you turn the power off. That you can trust. And just to be
safe, after you watch it decay to zero, take a jumper wire or
screwdriver and short the B+ to ground. There should be no spark.
There is no second chance with this stuff.
