You conveniently ignored the errors of your posts. It was cute, wordy and condescending again, typical of you. The whole emotional tirade joke flew right by you though didn't it T-dub? You still didn't refute one FACT that I stated, by the way. Care to try and make unequal things equal again? Or would you prefer to just admit that you are wrong and move on? I already know the answer - do you?

All hairdryers have one temperature setting - below what would burn hair. Temperatures well below what might harm electronics. Classicman does not admit his most basic mistake - that air flow has no relationship to temperature. Massive air flow or only 3 LPM makes no difference to temperature applied to a cellphone. How entertaining though. I have classicman's goat. No milk for him. I guess he will not be growing up in this thread. |
Dude, you're hilarious. Don't ever change. You got his goat! ha ha ha

According to Clodfobble's post, her meat thermometer read 150 degrees F after exposure to a hairdryer. Pork, beef, veal, lamb, and seafood are all considered cooked to "medium" when they measure 150 degrees. So a hairdryer is hot enough to cook flesh if held in place long enough. Perhaps hair won't burn (I don't know what the number for that is) but your "blistered foreheads" (a second degree burn) are a very real possibility if you hold the hairdryer in place too long. Fortunately, virtually everyone will feel pain long before the blistering occurs, and they will remove the heat source. |
Actually, I don't believe most consumer hairdryers have any temperature settings. They are controlled based on fan and heating element current. If you block the intake port at the back of the dryer, the element will get very hot, due to lack of airflow. At some point, the dryer should shut itself down as a safety feature.
If any one has a hairdryer at home please try this and report back. |
HLJ - yes, mine does that, but you don't even have to block the airflow, just use it for too long. Mine is also super-cheap though, nowhere near salon quality.
|
Thus the link between airflow and temperature is proven.
Q.E.D. |

You sorry, insensitive bastards. My sister was killed by a hairdryer, in the WTC on 9/11. But she would have lol'ed at UT's last post.
|
Hmmm, my hairdryer, no expensive thing, can be run on cool or hot. Is hot not a temperature? :confused:
What exactly are we arguing about again? ;) Your sister asked for it, Flint. Running around with hairdryers as if everything were OK, as if terror weren't lurking right around the corner. No one is ready for evil, it seems, until it is sitting smack dab in front of our faces. The time is now. REPENT. |

Does blocking airflow cause a hairdryer to become so hot as to damage a cell phone? Of course not. That hairdryer still remains in the same temperature range - below what will burn hair and well below what will harm electronics. Did you forget the context? Classicman says a hairdryer can harm a cell phone. A claim so far from reality as to be challenged with due diligence. Will a hairdryer with a hand blocking airflow (the perverted reasoning) harm a cell phone? Of course not. Temperature still remains in the same range – below what can burn hair and well below what will damage electronics. |

UT you changed one word because you complete did not understand or intentionally misrepresent that post. Completely obvious in that post is that heat does not damage memory - does not *cause* damage. Working in IT, then you should know such temperatures don't cause electronics damage - it should be that obvious. A hairdryer will not cause memory hardware failure. Heat causes operational/timing/program execution failure. A 'crash' created because hardware is already completely defective even if the computer still works fine at room temperature. Heat from a hairdryer only causes cell phone damage when myth purveyors declare it to be so. Why completely misrepresent what that "Anatomy of a hang" discussed in Mar 2006? Intentionally misrepresenting what was posted or just did not understand a simple diagnostic technique? |

If you don't think there's a reasonable chance that someone with a wet cellphone could further damage the cellphone with a hairdryer, in addition to my previous statements, I say you suffer from a lack of imagination. |
Here is a post by tw explaining that he uses a hairdryer to cause operational/timing/program execution failures in electronics.

Am I going to have to find the max temp a hairdryer can output, and then set my oven to that temp and throw an old, wet cellphone in to see what happens? . . . Because I probably won't get around to that anytime soon. . . . But somebody (Mythbusters?) should do it.
