I woke up one night to that horrible burning motherboard smell. Ran into the office and noticed it was the UPS. Somewhat freaked out (would have never expected that to go on me in this manner). I unplugged it ran downstairs and put it in the middle of the driveway. After watching it for about 10 minutes I went back to bed. Disposed of it two days later (after taking the battery out to eliminate a runaway effect.

- MR4D 4y agoYeah. If you’ve ever smelled burning electronics, you know that smell. In some ways, that’s a good thing as I knew where to go first. Of course, being the ups instead of the computer was weird to experience at 3 am. Hard to get your head to think through that when you aren’t fully awake, but starting to panic.
