Been there, done that with my nagios box when I had to replace a fan years ago. The build table was 120V so I flipped the switch and forgot to flip it back. It actually booted for about 5 seconds before things inside the PSU started exploding and spewing magic smoke. Scared the daylights out of me. No damage other than requiring a new PSU. ~Seth
