It's going about as well as my 7 year old at school, like I told his teacher. I can work with him and try to help him but if he doesn't want to read, I can't make him, lol.
Due to the nature of these products there’s no warranty. Mechanical Mods are for experienced vapers, that are aware of how to use unregulated devices. It requires technical knowledge in order to use properly. Before purchasing a mech mod we suggest you looking at our mech mod Blog or our videos. Feel free to call and speak to vape technician

It can't get any clearer, this is what people are saying needs to be done, warnings and waivers. This goes to show people are either not reading or not listening. I agree there are the less than honest types selling things to people but it's not hard to see that there are things in place to stop people from getting hurt and/or saying I didn't know. I can't comment on local shops, as I have not been to every single one but I do know that not all of them are bad.
This is because
- You contacts must be properly adjusted to make sure you mod is working properly
- Contacts must be cleaned if you’re not getting a strong hit
- Must make sure mod is locked so it doesn’t auto fire
- Whatever RDA or Tank you’re using must make sure you’re using the right type of battery.
- Need to be aware of voltage level in battery if battery is exhausted you run the risk of messing up your mod

Early on there were a few of the blu and ones like it that blew up as well. It's about education, handling and care. No different than any thing else that can be harmful if misused that's the bottom line the news should focus on the shop and the user simple as that. Ignorance is no excuse that man looks somewhat intelligent and is trying to cash in on this. How else does the news media get involved while he is at the hospital getting treated? If it was me I would be concerned about my face or wifeys not calling the local news to come film us and immediately mentioning an attorney.
My personality traits completely defy your logic.
As does my logic.
As does elementary school teaching of potential energy.
Hence why I sought out knowledge about the batteries I use.
Because when I was clueless, common sense prevailed and told me stored potential energy could become kinetic at any time. I felt it was important to know when, how, why and to what degree.
So as to your comment as to what *I* would do, you couldn't possibly be further from correct.
Tapatyped
You lived in a place where "potential energy" was taught in elementary school?
That's a very good elementary school you went to.
Point taken!
Guys like you and I who actually paid attention to kool science stuff are unfortunately uncommon everywhere but this forum. That's why I sometimes I like to consider myself a mutant. Because of the stupid things I see "PEOPLE" do and say most of the time there is no way I'm part of that species of Homo Sapien!
Kids today. Faces planted in cell phone screens. Zero people skills. Zero interaction. Intelligence entropy. Legalized pot. Hey bro, I'm gonna screw this atty topper on and vape. I thought the comment about teaching kids how to tell time really says it all.
Hybrid + non-adjustable pinned atomizer = disaster? I know that. Continuous discharge rating of battery and coil resistance? checked. Safe IMR battery? Yes, I have Sony VTC3 with 30A continuous discharge rate. Is my rda leaking down to the top cap? nope, checked that. Battery isn't overcharged or below 3.5V, right? yep, connected to voltmeter and it reads 4.06V, so good. ...and I thought I got it all, having spent a whole lot of time on researching about mech mods for few months.
Well, today I just found out that putting a scratched battery (the wrapper of the VTC3 had a little hole) is one of the most dangerous thing you could do on a mech mod. Jesus christ, I could have shorted/vented my battery out! and the mech mod I'm using right now is a manhattan clone, which isn't exactly known for a good ventilation. (at least mine doesn't have a good air hole.)
The point is, other than me being an idiot for not even thinking about simple and obvious danger, that as long as there isn't a comprehensive and structural way of acquiring safety knowledge about mech mods, internet searches and youtube videos will leave a gap in your learning. At this point, I think someone should be writing effing books about mech mods. I mean, vaping stores could just stock them up in the store like a vaping bible or whatever so people could just buy it and have a decent integrated and comprehensive guide about mech mods.

Are your batteries real tight? is there enough room between the inside of mech & the battery to slide a thin piece of cardboard or mylar rolled around the battery between them? just asking cuz this is a solution I came up with that I don't own a mech to try it on.
I've read a bunch of threads about injuries
Do like a buddy of mine did, wrap the inside of the mech with electrical tape

Guys? Have we just gone from furiously demanding better venting in mechs to giving advice on stuffing ones tubes?
Also check to see if the atties' center pin can be pushed up. If it can, it's not advised to use one with a hybrid adapter. Some atties use a soft insulator which makes this an issue.

Oh please. The first 20 years we had cars were filled with people mangling each other and ripping around at 30+ miles an hour for the first time in human history, without seatbelts, in wooden boxes with wheels, leading to straight up horror-film level scenes of carnage on a regular basis.
Everybody here has parents/grandparents/greatgrandparents who spent decades living in very serious risk of burning their house down because they didn't understand circuit loads and why you shouldn't plug 50 things into a single outlet.
Consumers will never go out of their way to learn the ins and outs of new technology. Never. At any age. Regardless of what you think about how that should figure into whether or not we need regulation, it has nothing to do with "kids these days."
You were "kids these days."
Your parents were "kids these days."
Your grandparents were "kids these days."
There is no such thing as an unusually stupid or careless generation. We are all consistently dumb, and have been for 200,000 years.
That's because you were not clueless.
I still remember the thread here on ecf where the guy wanted to know which was the positive end of his battery, because his batteries only said which were the + & - ends.
ECF at it's best right here. Facts, distorted facts, comedy and drama. Wait til the holiday crowd tomorrow! Robin and Classy ought take off let us " have at it ".
At least we got rid of the runaway horses and oxen stampeding through town... with people in wheeled wooden boxes strapped to their backs.
I'm not the first to put a fork in a socket.That's because you were not clueless.

I just learned from the experience.

Exactly what I thought about humans. Only 200,000 years is a bit too many.
