I’m not exactly sure myself; nearest I can guess is that I put them in the adapter wrong, then put the adapter in the device backwards.

It does if you’re wasted on shrooms or LSD. Perspective is all warped. So I figured it was Hendrix looking up, seeing an amazing sky and wanting to kiss it. What do you know? Thanks, Google.
Always, aways, always use eye protection. You never know when something’s going to fling itself at your eyeball.
I recall my dad, when I was a child, showing me his eyeglasses with a little chip dead center in one lens after he’d been hammering on a flagstone building a walk, commenting on how fortunate he’d been that he wore glasses. That was before the availability of cheap clear plastic “over the eyeglasses” safety goggles. Which I have stocked up on all over the house, nowadays.
No, no , you are the A@@h*le. I’ve thought about this for the last few days. I said nothing offensive to you. I said nothing that any normal person would consider offensive. Hey, it sucks to be you. I get that. Too bad. Not my fault. Don’t blame it on me.
Actually neither of you guys are. But do understand @bushmaster that not everyone speaks English as their native language. Sarcasm, jokes, cultural references don’t usually goes down well in written form on an international forum. I know that the world doesn’t exist for you outside the 49 but no need to call someone an ahole for not understanding you. Actually I did not at first get it either. The A**hole move, IMO, are the many who takes this off topic subject goes on and on in this thread.
The 357 AKA SR44 is a Silver-oxide button cel (11.6x5.4mm)
The LR44 is the Alkaline version
The CR44 is the Lithium Manganese version
The PR44 is the Zinc air version
And in a drawer somewhere you may even find some banned MR44 Mercury batteries.
NB. CRxxxx batteries are 3V. The others are (more or less) 1.5V.
This is sooooooooooo funny. Was minding my own bidniss on the couch, and I heard a loud pop/snap like a firecracker just went off a few feet away from me. A second or so later, “stuff” landing elsewhere. I’m like “wtf?!?”, and even my cat poked his head out of the Chui box he likes to hide in, and he’s like “wtf?!?”, too.
No gasping for air and choking to death, so a Li cell didn’t pop. No shards of plastic as if something like a plastic hangar snapped under a weight and sent pieces flying. I grab a light and go searching around the area. Nothing obvious. Kept looking, and kept looking, and kept looking. Nothing amiss.
Eventually gave up. Just glanced in passing at my calipers (needed ’em to cut down a SIM card), and saw the bulgy cell wasn’t in the “bubble” in the package. No storage case, easy for the plastic to snap, so I keep it in the card+plastic it came in. Cell’s still “in the package”, but not where it’s supposta be.
I take a closer look, and it’s just a cup now. The middle part (negative contact and stuffing inside) is gone. It’s just the positive case.
Okay, the flat end was almost a hemisphere at this point, but it still worked and powered the calipers.
So apparently it blew through the plastic and launched the disc and stuffing into the air, which is what I heard falling, leaving behind the cup in the package.
