Before getting into this story I want to make it clear that I am well aware of the dangers involved in using Mechanical Mods. I always do my best to vape as safely as possible, but hey. Sometimes .... happens.
My set up in this case was a Stingray X with a Dark Horse rda, Sony VTC 5 battary, duel 24 gauge kanthal twisted coils .2 ohm.
I was out a few days ago running errands, and like every other day I brought my mod out with me to vape on. Well all was going well until while I was on the street car on my way home I started feeling my leg getting hot right under where my mod was in my jacket pocket. I stood up and pulled the stop request button on the street car as I reached into my pocket to get my mod out, well the mod was so hot I couldn't touch it, and my pocket started smoking. By this point the street car had stopped for me to get off. I ran off, turned my pocket inside out and saw my MOD was POURING out smoke, for everywhere, the venting holes, and the top of the rda. Luckily the street I was on wasn't very busy and I had time to kick the thing down an ally. I stood watching for a few minutes because I didn't want anyone walking by to approach the ally way and get hurt when POP!!!!!!! The whole thing blows apart. Luckily no one was hurt. I went back to my local vape shop and explained what happened to the owner of the shop, and he hooked me up with a new set up for free. Now I am using a IPV V2 60 watt box mod, and have a new Dark Horse RDA on it. Still not too sure what happened as the battery was working fine, and the whole set up was working for over two months without a problem. Anyways, just wanted to share that little story with everyone.
