Amp Catches on FIRE!

so the lesson of the day is don't splice power wires?

You can do whatever you want. I mentioned previously, if the power supply blows and the mosfets short out you will basically have a short between + and - inside the amp. Blow on it, spit, piss, pour water put a blanket over, nothing will work.

Here's some fire damage

When did they feed it oxygen?

When they were blowing on it?

Biology 101

We inhale Oxygen and Exhale Carbon Dioxide.

You're joking right?

If they blow from that kind of distance it will get more oxygen then Carbon dioxide.

Nobody was smart enough to pop the hood and disconnect power wires? and then put water on it?

He's gotcha there Tirefryr

Not actually, considering the guy is right on top of the thing. Maybe if he was fanning it, but either way, it's a moot point.
