Good point. It’s highly concentrated inside a battery if not saturated. Hmm. I still wouldn’t expose them to such high temperatures.

Perhaps a longer duration at lower temperature is safer. I might try it some day with some waste batteries and a battery tester.

Well the electrolyte solution is water based so exceeding the boiling point will cause pressure buildup inside.

Edit: hmm seems I might be generalizing too much. Not all batteries use water based solutions. My point is that you should avoid a pressure buildup inside the battery due to reaching the solvents’ boiling point.

Well it was my 4th LG G4. Four times a charm I guess.

Sounds like a horrible idea if not carefully controlled. Perhaps up to 80 degrees in an oil bath could redissolve some of the electrolytes. I guess it could work. Anything above 100 is asking for trouble.

For me that was not so long ago. I still used an LG G4 as permanent car navigation until a year ago or so. I’m still surprised that one didn’t end up bootlooping.

Look at the bones!

That movie is about the first time humanity tried to enter the Warp without a Gellar field.

Keine ahnung.

Nice name. I live in the Netherlands so for the next few years summers will be bearable for the most part.

Indeed something to keep in mind when living in a warmer climate. The next model could be something like magsafe.

So say we all!

This applies to real life as well. Results may vary.

Very good point that I haven´t even considered yet. Hmm. I suppose mounting anything on the steering wheel (where the airbag comes out) is very dangerous.

Theoretically the airbag should hit my face first before the sun visor does. Hopefully neither ever will.

This car doesn´t have an easily removable radio. It is possible to make a fake cassette tape and mount it in there at best. Right now I have a bluetooth fake cassette tape that connects to my phone.

Indeed. I use a steam deck primarily for gaming and it surprises me every day how well it performs.

Hah, well I’m not far away from getting rid of this car. It has about 320000km mileage and the issues here and there are getting worse. Perhaps it’s still worth something to someone.

FreeCAD is great. Sure it’s not perfect but I greatly prefer that over corporate crapware that gets worse with every update. FreeCAD gets better instead.

I’ve made it out of PETG so a hot summer day shouldn’t be an issue.

Hmmm. I have 3D printed gears and PLA gears have outlasted my expectations but I would never ever trust a 3D printed gear in a car or anything else that involves human safety.

I’m already on Linux, gaming isn’t as good but I only play old games anyway so it doesn’t matter.

Statistically an outlier like that shouldn’t count.

Yeah the thing is you cannot guarantee that all mines deactivate. Some will last longer than others and this will put a probability on ending someone’s life.
