pot

Slang for "potentiometer" - a variable resistance electronics component.

"Smoking the pot" is when too "high" a current is applied to the pot and it will literally begin smoking. This typically burns the pot, and it is rendered useless thereafter.

I put a little Pot in my amp, and ended up "smoking the pot" when I turned it all the way up to 11.

I was so bummed I went and got stoned.
