How this happened, I will never know.

End user said there was smoke coming off the vital signs monitor, and it isn't charging....

People.....

That would have been an interesting one to take a look at (inspect).

Was the live line blown away by whatever caused that?

What was the state of things at the mains plug end, I wonder? Hopefully the fuse blew.

Did the monitor survive unscathed?

To be honest that looks more like the sort of mishap that sometimes occurs "in the workshop" (eg:- an errant soldering iron).

If you don't inspect ... don't expect.

Hello Willie (last seen at Al-Mira in Dammam 29 years ago) ... was it my comment about "an errant soldering iron" that brought back memories of happy days "down south"?

Hope you have avoided the worst of the seasonal weather in Marilao.

Meanwhile, personal reminisces are best placed in the Private Messages section.
