cold, wet and depressing autumn mornings/days.

Aaahhh, it's that time of the year again when you appreciate how hot your laptop and its charger get.

My feet enjoy my charger :)))

    I can absolutely relate to this. I once popped my charger's cap by fiddling with it with my feet.

    @aggelalex what? Did you pop open the case?

    @electrineer yes. Now I have it taped shut, although I might have to change the tape soon.

    @aggelalex sounds like it's not a safe product to begin with if it's not well glued shut. Did it expose live parts? Which manufacturer shipped such charger?

    @electrineer it was a DELL charger that came with my work laptop. It did expose some parts, it was a small PCB and some small wires. Still safe and sound though 😅

    @aggelalex please ensure you don't come in contact with the transformer inside

    @aggelalex I'd like to see a photo of the internals whenever you decide to change the tape. That sounds like they should recall those products.

    @aggelalex sounds like you could've easily gotten an electric shock if your feet had touched certain parts of the pcb. How dangerous that would've been depends on circumstances.

    My tower exhausts heat passively from the top. Winter always has me with my feet on top of the tower for that delicious heat.

    Before you ask, where I live is nine months winter, three months hell.
