| AKA I think it's a brand problem, not a rechargeable vs battery problem |
Epic Blizzard ! Stock up on Supplies| Versailles |
| I'd say what happened to me is rare. So to be honest, I'm unsure if more/less safe can be answered. As long as it isn't showing signs of being a problem, you're fine either way. Just maybe don't use rechargeable "cat" brands specifically |

| I have a couple of battery operated laser pointers for my cats, are they safer than rechargeable laser pointers |
| Versailles |
| I just won't use the rechargeable "cat friendly" brands anymore. I'm just going to get a normal laser pointer. It's "cat friendly" enough when just avoiding his face lol. |

| oh geez versa, that's scary. I've heard of phones blowing up, but not laser pointers x.x |
| Versailles |
| It didn't heat up to an extreme or anything beforehand. No warning signs during use or charging. Just exploded |

| Vixie, Gold, Sketti's laser pointer. A cat toy. It blew up in my hand. And I mean, literally exploded |
| Versailles |
| Fossil, It'll heal. They're going to medicate and wrap but not too much to be done about chemical burns. They're contacting poison control for further instructions on what I inhaled. |

| You have every right to be upset. That was ticking time bomb and it was good you were there. Hope your hand isn't too badly wounded. |
| Dash and Duchess |
| Oh gosh please do contact the company and warn as many people as you can, that could've gotten so much worse! |
| Versailles |
| It exploded, yes. It sounded like a damn firecracker. Chemical dust everywhere. Then it started smoking. I grabbed it and ran. Tossed it out the window to the concrete. |
| Versailles |
| Puck, Already am, I'm pissed lol. Like what if I wasn't home when it blew up on the charger or near the cat?? |
| Versailles |
| It wouldn't have been as bad if I didn't rush it outside to toss it on the concrete. I just didn't want my house to burn down |
| FirstLightFarms |
| Jesus. I feel like you should be contacting the company of that pointer |
