It’s probably off gassing aromatics from the molded plastics parts. Anything aromatic (in an organic chem context) is possibly carcinogenic. Past that its semi-volatile phthalates and other possible additives and light volatiles that may be off gassing especially from the unit’s heat generation/dissipation.

Offgassing testing is common (think new car smell…Yeah unfortunately that’s carcinogenic too, but we’re testing for stuff now). I’m pretty surprised they didn’t either invest in the right types of plastics that wouldn’t have potentially toxic emissions…unless they did and didn’t care until someone noticed and spread the word.

NPR is dope yo. They do good shit.

Dude who was Manipulating my boss (who we didn’t know at the time was declining in mental health due to huntingtons disease) got fired.

This guy was a ruthless climbing saboteur and also allergic to work. Everything he touched went to shit, tried to skirt the line of firable offenses saying he was our “union rep” but everyone hated him especially management. We actually work in a reasonable place and at least our department has decent salary even for no experience kids fresh out of college. Most people that leave try to come back as the grass was not greener.

Anyway, he finally committed a fire-able offense after my boss died and his manipulated shield was gone and replaced with a really good manager that didn’t take shit like that. He then tried to reapply under a fake name but he’s a fucking idiot and was found out.

Fuck that guy. Good riddance. I found out he now works for DHS (dept. Of homeland security) so fuck us but whatever, at least he’s out of my life.

Reverse engineering to determine safety is what UL does. If anything here, the charger needs to account for fucked batteries with fail-safes but as long as the batteries are fine, it shouldn’t be a problem

Def not UL Listed

Don’t wrestle with the pig. You both get dirty and the pig likes it.

Bad faith arguments, aversion to data, and generally the inability to admit that someone has a point that is based in fact doesn’t mean that the right is right. It’s a win at all costs mentality that doesn’t benefit anyone besides the ego of the arguer

It could be that you’re drinking 6-10 natty lights and now you’re an adult so you don’t buy piss water any more.

Spite! Spite is the word of your undoing!
