Maybe I have just been lucky.

Who else with Gemin has had ground loop isues ?

Is this something we really need to worry about ?
I've had arcing between my hands and the alu tripod in very dry nights enough to drop the USB communication to the lappy and have a bit of a jolt myself but I haven't had any major damage. Ever. Although I have heard and read many times on the Gemini groups people having to change specific fuses on the gemini board or components linked to local surge in voltage. One cannot be too cautious IMHO.
