357 Lithium coin battery blows up in my face!

At least you didn’t get your head bitten off. :smiley:

You gotta ask yourself one question, “do I feel lucky?” Well, do ya punk?….

That’s Ozzy, not Jimi.

Ozzy’s the one guy that The Bat Man is afraid of!

Eric Clapton, Tribute to Elmore James

Quite the contrary, anyone that can play the Star Spangled Banner (on guitar) with their teeth is pretty cool on my book.

I don’t understand how that made them blow.

Coin/button batteries are very dangerous if swallowed by children (or anyone else for that matter). I personally try to avoid purchasing devices that use them.

That’s close to impossible. Every car remote uses them, not to mention all quartz watches have them.

Anything you abuse is dangerous. Even drinking too much soda is dangerous.

Never even thought that button cells can go kaboom. Gotta pay more attention the next time I am working with them. I got various devices using them from laptops to watches.

Man… and all this time, I thought it was “kiss the sky.” :person_facepalming: :wink: :laughing:

Nah, that doesn’t even make any sense.

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.
Dumass X 2. :person_facepalming:

Unless you’re Timothy Leary.

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.

” I know that the world doesn’t exist for you outside the 49”

And how would you know that?

Nah, everyone knows Canada is the “lost Provence” part of the United States.

Is anyone else wondering about the Eneloop blow up story?

Now I start looking differently at these tiny litte bulging coin cells I’m collecting in a jar for recycle.

44, 357, that’s how they show their true colours… :neutral_face:

@Cochise334ever Thanks for sharing this story.
