Gaming Mouse Fire Hazard Alleged
A redditor's gaming mouse spontaneously combusted, nearly causing a house fire. The user, lommelinn, reported waking to the smell of smoke and discovering their Gigabyte M6880X wired optical mouse engulfed in flames. The incident occurred while their PC was in sleep mode.
The resulting damage was significant. Images show the mouse's top rear panel completely melted, while the underside remained largely intact. The user's desk and mousepad also sustained melt damage. The cause of the localized damage remains unexplained.

“Hi Everyone, We have been made aware of the incident… Our team has reached out to lommelin to offer support and to investigate the matter fully… Best, The GIGABYTE Team.”
lommelinn expressed astonishment, noting their PC was in sleep mode and that subsequent voltage checks on the USB port revealed no issues. The cause of the fire remains a mystery.
