Bad luck.

You'll just have to touch the next one in a less erotic way. 

(I am of course referring to the volcano and liquid being like something else)

Did your mouse make any suspicious pops?

Today when i turned my pc on i noticed it wasnt working, (it's wireless mouse, so that means empty batteries) and i saw one of the batteries had leaked a bit. changed them with new ones and the mouse worked for a few mins but then there was a weird crackling noise, i thought it was burning inside :D scary shit. and then i saw the leak.. but there wasnt any pops, only the crackling noise.

 

and suggestion for everyone - dont ever buy cheap batteries!

I don't always have time to study, but when I do, I don't.

Did you put regular batteries ? Cause that thing works with lithium rechargeable batteries.

It's a Logitech S520 mouse/keyboard combo. Lasted me for 4 years without any problems, but it was time to change it anyway

That is why it exploded it's saying "bitch I'm getting old and you need to replace me with those better premium brothers of mine go get my brother The Prometheus Core (my dream mouse) he is so cool and explode*."

Looks like the seal on that little IC sprung a leak and let all the magic smoke out. You can get a magic smoke refill kit at sparkfun electronics though.

That thing works fine with regular batteries. It had duracell non rechargables when i bought it, and i've been using regular ones for 4 years.

if i was in US i would get the g502s, but they cost double the price here..
