    Remember: Every device is a smoke machine if you use it wring enough.

    Also: Every electrical device is filled with smoke and the job of electricians is to stop the smoke from escaping, which would render the device useless.

      The correct technical term is magic smoke.

      Hehe yes, we called it “magic smoke” in the early days of my engineering studies. Devices run on magic smoke so they stop working if the magic escapes.
