Im kinda losing my mind here.
First time the cable that came with my wireless mouse had melted at the mouse connection end. (Endorfy Lix)
The mouse did exhibit strange behaviour forever, where Windows would throw up an error any time I connected it to the pc for charging.
Something akin to "Device not recognized"
Finally one day my keyboard stopped functioning and the PC restarted, giving me a screen similar to blue death saying some USB component is drawing too much current.
I disconnected the keyboard since I thought that was the issue and the PC booted fine after.
Later on I discovered that the usb cable connected to the mouse had melted the plastic close the the connection point. Mouse seemed fine so I kept using it and charging with different cables.
Later, using a different cable and high quality one plus fast charging brick, a random cable had burned and melted a part of a PS5 controller really bad.
Months later, another PS5 controller became the victim of the cable melting phenomenon.
The only common point across these three occurences is that I probably had charged the mouse at some point with both cables that ended up killing themselves and the controllers.
Is my mouse really turning cables to expensive electronics killing machines? Like is that a genuine thing that can happen?
