Hi Guys.
Just had my son come running telling me he was playing in the spare room and i should come quick. Expecting to see a spider or something but when i open the doors the smoke poored through the house.
WHAT THE F**K
Id been toying with a few Led downlight testing how long i get out of a security battery when he picked up the led the aligator clips shorted out.
When he dropped it coz of the smoke he dropped it over my CRO leads and a bunch of Aligator leads on the shelf below so by the time i got there it was a big glowing smoking pile of spagetti.
Apart from the stuffed CRO leads theres no real damage the battery was fine the LED downlight were fine we will just have to live with that burning electrical smell for a few hours. But could have been alot worse had it fallen on the Paper work for my test bench im building.
Things like this always remind you.
Kids are very curious so make sure you explain everything to them save them finding out the hard way
