I never said any of this wasn't the case. Of course batteries have limits. The exaggeration and hyperbole is what I have a problem with. Words like "explode" and "pipe bomb" are disingenuous, to say the least.
Sub ohm vaping is more popular than it's ever been in the history of vaping. Mechanicals are more popular than they've ever been in the history of vaping. "Exploding" batteries are more rare than they've ever been in the history if vaping. There used to be weekly reports of egos shooting off of...
