Inductor Burns From Near Short
L1 burned up Thought for 37s › Ah — that makes sense, and it’s my fault: the way I drew it earlier effectively put DC across L1 (i.e., a near-short from +9V → Q1 → L1 → GND), which will absolutely make an inductor get hot/smoke. Why L1 burned
A dark-mode technical discussion explains why an inductor labeled L1 overheated and smoked. The joke is the blunt self-correction: the circuit drawing accidentally placed DC across the inductor through a near-short, making the failure completely predictable. It is used as a reaction to an obvious engineering mistake or a belated realization.
