thanks for all of the comments guys this is massively helpful, some wire extender short circuited and ive been breathing that shit in along wuth its plastic fumes for years. it's not talked much avout onlind but ive seen the terms 'electronic odor' and 'electric fire' thrown arouund. it was an ikea cheap thing and theyve refused to respond to my emails
Depends on the plastic, but if you're using an extension cord or power strip that smells like burning plastic, that's also a fire hazard. I know I wouldn't be continuing to use it
i stopped when i figured it was the source
