My headlight connector got a little melty, just enough to get loose and stop working, just wore out I suppose.
I bought one on Amazon, along with new bulbs, installed it, and within an hour the new connector had catastrophically melted and shorted out enough to blow the fuse.
I should've known, the wire felt cheap, copper clad aluminum. But I thought it would be fine, it's just a headlight 🤷♂️
Now I've got a replacement from the local auto parts. So far so good.
Oh god yeah, so many LED grow lamps and LED drivers that melted or burned out well below their rated amperage. Leaves one to wonder if an entire house is worth saving $10.
I have some 128gb ddr5 kit I bought a few years ago. Want to sell it back I'm not going to use it but the scammers be scamming.
So uh... How much you want for it?
