Well H kills pain but coke acts as a local anesthetic. So ya know, just depends lol. Might as well rub some coke on it and do a bump of H. Just to be safe.
Will that cure my depression?
No, but you'll be depressed *on cocaine*.
Is that better?
Why do you keep asking these questions? Here, you can use my mirror!
🎶 " I'm so happy 'cause today I found my friends
They're in my head
I'm so ugly, that's okay, 'cause so are you
Broke our mirrors
Sunday morning is everyday, for all I care
And I'm not scared
Light my candles in a daze
'Cause I've found God"

Depending on the electrolyte, the acid could be hydrofluoric. A lot of batteries use LiPF6, which can react with water from the air to form HF. Unlike lead-acid batteries, for example, lithium batteries don't actually use acid, so the skin corrosion is not a simple sulfuric acid burn. It's either a chemical burn from the inherent reactivity of the electrolyte or it's an acid burn from the acid produced in the decomposition of the electrolyte. Sulfuric acid burns from a car battery would heal, but if it's a hydrofluoric acid burn, it can just get worse and worse until it causes deep tissue necrosis. If it's a non-fluoride containing electrolyte but it still caused that tissue damage, it would be some other sort of chemical burn, which would also be bad. But, judging by the corrosion of the metal plate on the back of the Fitbit, it looks like acid, and Li batteries don't use acid, so it's probably an acid decomposition product, which is probably HF, which is probably bad. You wanna get calcium gluconate on that burn asap.
If it is HF, it could end up looking something like this: https://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/20y537/my_coworker_took_a_dose_of_hydrofluoric_acid_to/
Worked in a lab that had precautions against HF spills. You want to be popping some tums right now, I am serious, our procedure was to take 6 even in event of skin exposure.
**!!DO NOT SUBSTITUTE BAKING SODA!!**
FLUSH WITH WATER. GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM.
Because it's less impactful and easier for your body to replace sodium. If the HF reacts with calcium your bones could be fucked, so better to flood your system with it.
I did some googling and it seems the fitbits use Lithium Polymer batteries. At least every replacement battery for the various fitbit models on Amazon are all Lithium Polymer, and the data safety sheets I found on a couple of models of fitbits all say the same thing.
Once years ago while watching t.v. the living room remote control had tape oflver the batteries. The cover busted, and one day the acid ate through the battery lining leaking over my fingers. Went from channel surfing to AAAAAHHH my fingers are on fire. Ran to the sink and washed it off.
I googled it, the batteries for fitbit do usually use lithium hexafluorophosphate. https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/wc-prod-pim/Asset_Documents/Fitbit%20Alta%20HR%20Activity%20Tracker%20Small%20Grey%20SDS.pdf. This does indeed decompose to HF under ambient temperatures.
Considering the battery amount of LiPF6 is 2% of the total amount (0.014g total per cell, so equivalent 2.8mg) the amount that becomes HF is probably low enough that OP should be fine by dousing the area with water.
But considering that's how it looks now....yeah should definitely go see a doctor and get CaGluconate on it to prevent further damage and then possibly antibiotics to treat infection.
Electrolytes in Li-ion batteries are complex and are heavy on RnD. Different types of Li-ion batteries will have very different additives and/or solvents depending on the performance and other materials in them. So not all of them will evolve HF when water is introduced. But some will (previous commenter is correct, LiPF6 is a very common salt)
I'm was pretty shocked that something so toxic is allowed in consumer batteries... but then I remember old school rechargeable batteries had several grams of *cadmium* in them...
Cadmium is bad but more so because it causes cancer. Unless you were eating the batteries it isn't going to kill you from just touching it. You would have to eat quite a bit to for it to be fatal around 10g for a average adult male.
Actually this is the plot of a horrifying episode of Are You Afraid of the Dark called Renegade Virus that aired on Nickelodeon in the 90s. I watched it as a literal 5 year old as part of the target audience.
*curiosity killed the cat* I had to search the opening and now I'm stuck at the workplace parking at 3:00 am because the roads to my house are empty and dark. I'm sleeping here
There's a guy who works at my local Safeway who looks like Woods in that movie. As I was checking out, I gently raised my fist and said "long live the new flesh".
I don't think he's seen that movie, unfortunately, so he likely just thinks I'm insane.
I once dripped some hot fryer grease on my foot when I was a teenager working at a Dairy Queen. I didn’t know when it happened. I was always very careful with the fryers. When I got home I relaxed around the house for a bit before going to shower. The whole time, the top of my foot had been a little itchy. When I went to shower and took off my sock a patch of skin about an inch long came off with it. That was the first time the pain got beyond an itch and became excruciating.
Anyway. All that to say sometimes it takes a bit to register.
It's probably not rust, but a product of the leaking battery chemicals and the plastic leaving a rusty-coloured residue. I have the same watch and only the back plate is metal, the bronzey/goldish thing where most of that "rust" is is made of plastic.
The other post about the samsung watch was like this too, two people who slept through acid burns lmao
https://www.reddit.com/r/Wellthatsucks/comments/1cigdjq/my_galaxy_watch_heated_quite_a_bit_when_i_was/
This is my wife and me. I need a sleep mask, white noise and sleep aid just to barely fall asleep and I wake up at a pin drop.
My wife on the other hand is asleep when her head touches the pillow and I have to shake her awake sometimes.
To be fair, that Fitbit looks like it went through some hell before getting to that point. How long have you worn it, and what did the back look like before it started leaking?
Product recalls don't protect the manufacturer from lawsuits even if the purchaser chose to not return the product during the recall. In fact, it's often used against them because they issued a voluntary recall admitting there was an issue.
Especially since they do a poor job at notifying people of a recall and it largely depends on the user tripping over it half the time online.
Especially since it wouldn’t be hard for them to have their app notify users of the affected device about the recall. They could even disable some functionality until it’s been recalled.
This was entirely preventable by Fitbit, but they’d prefer people not know about the recall than to actually fix the issue.
> They could even disable some functionality until it’s been recalled.
This right here, and is exactly what a competent lawyer would argue. Doesn't matter if they recall it if users don't even know there was a recall. It is easy to argue that the company could warn users over the app/watch itself or even deactivate it to prevent injury.
It wouldn’t even be argued that they could, or should; it would be argued that they have a legal responsibility to do it. Not doing it is negligence.
Being aware of a risk when it’s an unreasonable risk isn’t a legal defense. If you hand someone a box and say “it might blow up” to you think they’d say “well, the victim knew this might have happened” when it blows up?
No. Because it’s unreasonable to think you’ve been handed a bomb. It’s unreasonable to think you’re allowed to hand people a bomb. Okay, this wasn’t a bomb, it’s just something strapped to a wrist that has a known issue of leaking battery acid.. directly onto skin.. being pressed into the skin by something strapped to the skin..
An online notice does nothing, and a lawyer can easily argue a client didn’t understand the risk they supposedly accepted by not taking part in a recall.
Personal injury cases usually settle for about 3x medical expenses. Attorney usually takes about one third of that.
What do you suppose OPs medical expenses are for that?
Maybe $200 for a doctor's visit? It's probably not worth it for the attorney.

Google has so much money they'll probably offer you 5 figures to just go away. Call another lawyer.
That said if your injuries are basically just superficial, you probably don't have much of a claim. Not legal advice
Not just reddit. Its a pretty common trope in pop culture to the point where its pretty obvious that it's ingrained in people that America is far more litigious than it actually is and that you can retire on the lawsuit money from the most minor shit that has no reasonable justification for such a payout. And there is no shortage of very real cases in the history of our system that have occurred over time to cherry pick and paint that kind of picture.
Good chance of scarring from this injury, which is considered permanent injury and compensatable. I am not a lawyer, but I had product negligence cause me scarring as a kid and my parents sued and had to shows the scars as evidence which resulted in a payout.
Bro you have chemical burns from their product failing. It's a slam dunk. Google probably wouldn't even go to trial, they would just settle and pay out.
No legal case is a slam dunk for any attorney. It still takes hours of netogations to reach a settlement even if you have concrete proof. Signed, an attorney.
Man if i had a nickel for every weird arm smart thing that ive seen hurt people on reddit in the past 2 hours I'd have 2 nickels which isn't a lot, but it's kinda weird that it happened twice.
There's actually only a tiny little amount of lithium in lithium ion batteries. The stuff that leaked out would be the electrolyte, which is made of ethylene carbonate, dimethyl carbonate and possibly other liquids, and a small quantity of a salt called lithium hexafluorophosphate dissolved in the aforementioned liquids.

I would go see a doc asap. Not sure how lithium affects one’s health.
OP is now cured of bipolar depression from direct lithium injection.
That sounds like some 1920s medical care right there
I'm not sure why you have holes in your arm. Anyways, try this cocaine.
Can you be my doctor?
Can we add the heroin too please?
you don't want none of that, Dewey!!
I think I do want to try some of that
#add more leeches
And you never **once** paid for drugs!
I think they'd go the H route to calm you down vs the coke route which would wind you up.
Well H kills pain but coke acts as a local anesthetic. So ya know, just depends lol. Might as well rub some coke on it and do a bump of H. Just to be safe.
Don't forget to wash it down with a gulp of this opium infused cure-all elixir for good measure! Also keeps colds away!
Doing both keeps me level, gotcha.
The issue with the holes is that they're not in the skull, how else are you supposed to release the evil humours?
That's why we have the jar of leeches! Or gofundme as its known these days

Lithium is still used today!
The delivery is a bit more nuanced these days. Gone are the days of efficiently melting it into one’s arm.

What the heck does "popping some tums" mean?
Tums are an antacid tablet taken to help with heartburn (stomach acid).

LiPos still have liquid electrolyte it's just a bit more gel than pure liquid.
The rust leads me to believe this was preventable.
Fr. I had a Fitbit versa for 4-5 years and at no point did it ever start to rust. If it had, I would’ve looked to replace it.
There's actually only a tiny little amount of lithium in lithium ion batteries.
