Reddit user tommyboy601 had the bad surprise of having his PSP Slim’s battery explode after leaving it in the device for several years without actually using the PSP.
Apparently the battery plastic case contained the explosion, so the PSP itself wasn’t too damaged.
However, instead of trying to revive the poor thing, or resell it to his local gamestop, tommyboy601 decided to do some cool work of art with the device, and showcase it in a post he entitled “Decided to retire the PSP with some dignity after the device exploded“.
Check the result in his picture below:
Pretty cool, hu? If you’re wondering, the pieces are hold in place with Super Glue.
I just love this comment from one other redditor:
I don’t want to know what you would do with dead pets.
Anyway, as a reminder, if you’re not using an electronic device for a long period of time, remember to take the battery out!
