I was working on a BLDC motor circuit in my apartment which has 1 small room and not much airflow. I am using up to 30V and 10A to drive the motor. Because I am still testing on a breadboard, a lot of these components get hot pretty quick with 2A - 10A flowing (N-CH MOSFETs, jumper wires, resistors). I did not solder anything yesterday, and was simply making connections and applying 2A - 10A for around 30-45 seconds.

I was feeling pretty good yesterday, but after working on this circuit for about 2.5 - 3 hours it started to hurt my chest a little when I took deep breaths. I woke up this morning and it still hurts a little bit to breath, but it's getting better. Overall the room smelled pretty normal, but it maybe had a slight "electronics?" smell to it from the components heating up.

I am wondering if there are potential health problems that could arise from working in conditions like this? Or am I over reacting? I also donated blood yesterday which could be part of it.

I am wondering if, in general scenarios similar to the one described above, could it be possible to damage your respiratory system from high current circuits by breathing in air pollutants emitted from hot components?
