Let’s say I hypothetically had some mice pee in some plastic components that cannot be properly cleaned in any realistic way. Is it possible to heat it up to “cook off” the mouse pee nastiness without actually melting the plastic?

      I’m afraid I don’t, but it’s easily one of the most famous reddit posts ever, you’ll find it if you look it up.

      It was in a thread on a post about someone who seemingly found a homemade electric chair in an abandoned house iirc. The chair was connected to a car battery, and Electro-Balls wanted to show everyone that a car battery didn’t generate enough current to cause pain, let along hurt/kill someone.

      Edit: Decided to find it because I wanted to see if I got the story right. I got the story right

      “The most painful thing was attaching the alligator clips from the power supply, but aside from that, I’d like to report a mild, and almost pleasant tingling sensation.”
