A criminal behavior - it should not explode in such violent way. A top of the capacitor can has a starlike cut - should break at these lines.

Magnetic component broken is a PFC inductor.

Looks like both of us were unlucky. When did it happen. For Me, it was a week or two ago. At least hopefully there was someone to help you at the time, like I had someone to help

As for food, ate nothing special today. But for a Polish roll cut in half with cheese and ham is the best for old Polish breakfast 👌 As for, I go to Rugby every Saturday and go to the Alma market to get some but as if I was in Poland it'd be once a 2 or 3 days. Also due to that my Grandmother lives in a village that has a shop.

I'd take anything that'd be on the table. Of course I'm not allowed alc*h*l yet due to my age though

Mine is Dr Pepper! What about yours?

@Eleco_SR304 Like me but with Italian ham, I will never forget that one day in a field
@suzukir122 My Friend makes the awesome pancakes! They are proper American ones! Mean while my Belgian Aunt, make the Best Belgian Crepes I have ever tasted (and yes, they are a lot better than the ones in the shops!)

Swapped out a very broken CFL driver at work. We have a spare, luckily. All of them are scheduled for replacement somewhere this year.

The buffer capacitor blew up so hard, that parts of one of the transformer cores (ferrite) actually broke.

No one noticed the bang or the stench of blown up electrolytic, apparently all the stink got trapped above the dropped ceiling.

Technology Connections made this video recently, around last Christmas, with some more thoughts on LED Christmas lights, including a look at the recent "vintage-style LED lights" from Sylvania.

If that is the case I guess it may be time to call this all of as I'm getting in over my head.

Yep, If not that luck, I'd probably wouldn't be there. The bit of the bacon that stretches out and is quite like gum got stuck in my throat, I believe the bit where the pharynx is. As of this, I don't think I was even able to breathe (I don't remember much I was in much shock to think...). I usually never ate that bit but decided to that day. Thankfully I was lucky enough to commit a "Throw Up" Action, which the whole thing then fell out (or the bit that got stuck middle way). After that, I decided to never touch that bit again  hopefully some members here didn't have this, or worse.

I usually try not remember it, it gives me a shudder and the other that were there. This gave me a lesson of life...

Please don't judge this action. That'd help so much...and don't ever mention this 

End of this discussion about my bacon action.

@Eleco_SR304, fear of bacon?
@SussexEuroSOX, not sure why or even how, but I totally forgot about making pancakes. That's surprising considering how pancakes can at
times be the best part of breakfast... case in point, Crackle Barrel pancakes. Their pancakes are serious -- usually an 8 out of 10,
each time I buy them on Door Dash. Their pancakes can be an excellent reminder of just how good pancakes can get. I need to start making
pancakes... gotta do some recipe searching.
