andrewl923 03/20/20 4:41:56 PM #1:	Made a stupid mistake and used a longer PC power cable which I thought was compatible with my brand new Instant Pot. It wasn't, and the cable melted at the middle which caused the Instant Pot to shutoff. Luckily it shutoff as I was upstairs and didn't even know and one of my dinner chair has a black mark where the cable was touching. The cable was super hot and I slightly burnt myself unplugging it. I thought the Instant Pot was done, and I'll need to get a exchange. But it turned on once I used the original cable, and was able to finish the original cook. Do you guys think it will affect the life of the Instant Pot or should I still exchange it? --- http://steamcommunity.com/id/BigDrew923/wishlist <cite>andrewl923 posted [p:935958269] in Almost set...

I assume the cable is the same. --- http://steamcommunity.com/id/BigDrew923/wishlist <cite>andrewl923 posted [p:935958720] in Almost set...
