Im just wondering when i first use it aftrr 30min it got hot both the battery and the charger itself.what i did is unplug it and dd not continue using it. Is this normal?Yes and very easy.
I use the D2 because it'll give you battery voltages when you load it with batterys, so with dual battery mods its easy to see if both batterys are discharging equally.
Is my vaping safe?

You did the right thing unpluging it.
Mine will get warm,not really hot. I can hold the back of my hand on the charger and batts without it feeling overly hot, just warm.
Have you checked the scratch-off security code on the charger?
At least its an authentic charger. What batterys are you using?
Is it the I2 or D2 nitecore?
Review of Charger Nitecore Intellicharger new i2 2016
This link explaines the buttons a bit more (about half-way down). It looks like you can change the charging current.

As long as your batterys are authentic is very possible is just charging warmth (like when charging a cell-phone).
Nitecore chargers are considered very trustworthy chargers.
You could very closely monitor it whilst its charging and place it on a non-flamable surface (this is recommended anyways).
Do you have to press the buttons or doesit automaticaly charge?
No, it looks like (from reading the article), it selects the voltage based on battery length.
So you should be able to just put your batterys in and it'll scan the battery (lights will flash), then charge on its own.
I'd check out the xtar line Abe, I used nitecores for years thinking that it's normal for them to get hot , switched to the VC 2, and VC 4, could not be happier
Sensible. Good, minimum risk, done (or chosen) with care and thought.What do you mean by sensible sir?
Cells with lithium manganese chemistry. A safer chemistry battery that won't explode when pushed over its limits (though it can happen). Plenty of batteries are marketed as IMR but are actually of a hybrid chemistry, though still considered safer than ICR (lithium cobalt) cells.

Nitecore is a reputable brand, I've used the i4 and D4, but I've seen a few reviews of people having problems with them, do they have a customer service line? Maybe give them a call..
Lithium manganese oxide = IMR
(I had to look it up) basically they are high drain batteries, rated for higher (faster) discharge - heating that coil can take quite a bit of amperage (which is the dangerous part of electricity) - drawing more amps from a battery than it is rated for will cause the battery to fail, possibly catastrophically. ICR batteries were a problem when I first started vaping - if you don't buy from a reputable source you could have ICRs re wrapped as IMRs... which could cause your vape to explode in your face. Hope that helps!

silly... the batteries go in the kbox 75w minis upside down as well...
i have 3 of the topbox kits and 7 of the tanks, it's what i started with and only really has one issue..
if you drop it, the spring loaded gold coloured pin can get jammed up... a safety pin or small flathead screwdriver can be used to get it unstuck, just get the sharp end(with battery NOT in the mod) in where it's stuck and give it a wiggle. it's a common issue with spring loads and some of us being klutzes.
forgot to add... i've always used the LG HG2's in mine, yes both the battery and tank get warm since you are using them. the tanks will leak if you get the juice HOT(not warm) because the juice will become thinner with heat, so if that happens... hey you're chain vaping lol! batteries will warm with use and when charging.
Good to know. Never used kbox.
Tge Pico is the only18650 mod that went in upside down
I wish more mod developers designed mods for safety.

Some one on here recommended to me when my I stick charging port came lose after a month an half. I love it. Was gonna get a sigelei 30 watt
