Fried an aquarium thermometer that way.

How did that happen?

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Asked assistant to turn off basement light and instead it turned ON "10 gallon aquarium heater".

However it heard that, no idea.

My girlfriend was cleaning her tank, and the water level was below the heater. I was somewhere else in the house, and so she never noticed, and within 60 seconds the thing shattered from being turned on and not submerged.
