screwdrivers can work, but if you have enough voltage and amperage you may end up with a welded screwdriver.

This is extremely useful if you have a brand new capacitor you charged from thin air. I don't know how this is useful for something attached to a board.

@DrunkenGolfer HA! Never, EVER have i seen a capacitor explode from shorting the leads. If the plates inside an electrolytic capacitor were to touch, you may have a problem, but the likelihood of that ever happening is extremely minute. Capacitors are designed to discharge quickly. If you wanna fiddle with a silly lightbulb, go right ahead, but i will continue to use my screwdriver.

lol 100s of microFarads might not even light the bulb for a sec, u dont need a motor or anything else
