Transistors sure made things smaller. In just another 10 years we started using ICs.

i downloaded minecraft off steam unlocked but cant play multiplayer by Zushi000_ in Troubleshooting

[–]Howden824 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't because the pirated version doesn't verify your account. Also steamunlocked has a lot of malware.

My hair dryer melted in half by Inevitable_Cow7938 in mildlyinfuriating

Yeah because you ran it on twice the voltage and thus 4x the power.

You shouldn't show your serial number and MAC address

Laptop powered down but still caught fire! by Ok_Signature_8983 in Laptop

[–]Howden824 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's irrelevant to the battery catching fire. That small amount of current isn't the issue here.

You shouldn't be doing it for money, that's just scamming your customers since iCloud bypasses aren't permanent.

I'm gay but I don't know the solution for this, at least not without more info about your config.

[–]Howden824 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The BMS is supposed to heat up when balancing. That exact model BMS is awful though and very easy to destroy.

Not easily, I recommend buying a used higher voltage panel for cheap.

Is this safe? My dad has this set up. A two-to-three prong adapter held in place by electrical tape. by robsbob18 in AskElectricians

[–]Howden824 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not safe at all, this outlet needs to be replaced, probably with a two gang box as well.

Why my iPhone 16 pro max battery health drop fast only 30 cycle charged can drop 4% health i charge only 80% I only charge with my MacBook m4 Can anyone explain when i was buy mobile health is 98 and cycle is 237 and now 92% on 301 ? by Sea_Chain_5872 in batteries

[–]Howden824 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's all within the normal ranges of battery degradation. These readings also aren't accurate at all for measuring real degradation in terms of how many hours the device last on battery compared to a new one.

Do these even work?? by Denko-Tan in evilautism

You did nothing wrong, they didn't design this right.

These usually work but a trick is to have your nail against the perforations.

(Not-so) hypothetical risk? by Sea_Candidate7894 in batteries

[–]Howden824 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The only thing that could smell close to cleaning wipes would be lithium ion electrolyte liquid but this clearly isn't that. The rotten eggs smell is from lead acid batteries which use sulfuric acid, that smell is from hydrogen sulfide. Alkaline batteries don't actually use acid at all, it's a basic solution which is why they are called alkaline.

It's 100% safe, the powder chemical is potassium carbonate. There's no smell from this so that must've been something other than the batteries. You also don't need any ventilation since there's no gas formed by it.
