omg i have bad luck
I can't believe myself. I am new to electronics so i dont know what even can cause this. Ok so i built a tv b gone from the ladyada kit. It worked perfectly untill all the sudden i hear this pop and the battery explodes and starts leaking acid everywhere. One blew up in a real (one and only one tv) remote, which i though was impossible with the diodes that prevent battery put in wrong, but that doesn't matter cause that batteries were in right after putting in the new ones(the ones that exploded). I tried building an arduino robot which i didnt wire up properly (very good explanation in that forum) and instead of the microcontroller heating, the battery poped and melted through plastic leaving the worst smell in the world. And today i made a tv b gone on a breadboard, JUST LIKE LADYADAS, to test out if more ir leds would be good and in testing (one ir led) it turned on my tv but then the AA battery blew up. I felt the tv b gone microcontroller and it wasn't hot nor anything else. I dont know if i hav bad luck or somthin, but i keep blowing up batteries.
