What's that smell?

If it smells the same as 40-45 years ago you really don't want to know :)

@catsalad magic smoke incense. Don't worry about it.

Ugh. The smoke from blown electronics? Foul. 🤮

@catsalad I love it! I'd personally like one that looks like a Rifa paper-dielectric cap, because those plague me more than venting electrolytics. Or I suppose a farting dog would be cool.

@catsalad For those who don't get the joke: this humidifier looks like a common electronic component. When a capacitor like this explodes or just leaks, the room stinks for two weeks like a fishing trawler.

@catsalad I didn't know this existed mere minutes ago, but now I need one.

[retrosponge@kind.social]

@catsalad That's awesome 😂

@catsalad It's the wrong colour, the magic smoke is blue, this is white.

@catsalad even knowing that it is not a real capacitor, it still makes me nervous
