    Yep. When I would work on my model trains, there would be a hint of burning plastic smell to go with it :doh:

                            I still have one (with its legs cut off) as a key fob. It was one of a total of eight that got fried in a regulated power supply / linear amplifier combination when a capacitor failed. That was in about 1973. I used to use them [almost] by the bucket full.
