Is my 25R ok?

[VidGamrJ]

I just noticed the positive pin on one of my 25R's has some sort of knick in it. I just noticed it today, and I don't think it's been like that for long. Do you think it's still ok to use?

Yes but i'd try to find the cause.

Apparently it is from arching. Either it wasn't secure in my Sig150 or the battery or contact might have been dirty.

My sig150 had issues with the batteries coming loose and damaging the positive terminals. Wound up having a 25r vent when I took it off the charger because the wrapper was slightly torn. Be careful when inserting the positive ends of your batteries and make sure they're all the way in before putting on the case.

Hi,
There is always an insulation between battery's positive and negative sides. most probably, positive was shorted to negative monetarily by a piece of metal, wire,....
You need to figure out what was the cause for that short. That can happen again and cause fire. you can clean up the bad spot on the battery positive using a piece of sand paper and use it again.
good luck.

Are you using a hybrid mech?

No, I usually use them in a Sig150. But! I discovered what happened. My fiancé couldn't find her vape, so she popped batteries in my mech box and must have not tightened it enough or something. I discovered this after she did it a second time and shorted a pair of batteries and one of them had the same exact mark. She was lucky nothing bad happened, I told her not to use the mech anymore no matter what.
