Tip Number 1.

15 Minutes on full power in an 850w microwave is too long for a jacket potato, despite what your wife may tell you.

Below are images displaying the damaged caused to my microwave by the resulting fire which ensued after about 14 minutes and 40 seconds. Lots of smoke, and a generous helping of flames.

Second pic has colour inverted to better show the damage. Nice!

10 mins on full in a 900W is fine......

15 mins is a tad long, no wonder it exploded lol

I learnt a most valuable lesson on the old micro tha hard way - NEVER put a jam doughnut in one. Hot jam is really funny when it squirts out and clings to the side of ones boat race. :evil:
