    Can't you just wait a few days before you start taking them apart?

    It depends if the bleed off resistors are still working and still intact on the boards, do you want to bet your life on it???
    Better safe than sorry, and it only takes an extra 30 seconds to make sure the voltage is gone. In a way, this high voltage is kinda like lightning; you don't play with that, do ya?
