Another Exploder

[Bad Ninja]

I wonder how you tell the difference between an e-cig battery and a flashlight battery.

Maybe it's just that if a flashlight battery explodes in your pocket you can't blame flashlights. If you had a flashlight and an e-cig, and a battery exploded in your pocket, who would you sue.

They are flashlight batteries.
These batteries came from the flashlight world.

I now have 11 severely dented batteries, 1 that the wrapper came clean off and 1 that shot clear over my head with flames shooting out of the button end like a torch.

I *think* they all bounced just a little, but not sure.

Which ones you think are good?

The one that went clean over ya head is a bin job for sure

the others well if they are dented and minus wraps you should bin them also

maybe a good time to get some new ones

OK I will.

This time I'll check them all before I use them.

Better safe than sorry.

I'm actually much more comfortable with the activity in the 2nd picture than the one in the first picture. I earned my NRA Marksmanship medal when I was 12. Battery malfunctions still scare the crap out of me.

What? Did I do something wrong? You gotta promise you'll tell me. I'm new at this.

Great thinking. This way I get the best batteries. I'll be sure to check every battery in the store. I want to blow clouds, so I need the best they got.

Make sure they all have "Fire" in the name and you should be fine

Will do, thanks.

You dudes are so smart.

Spotted this in my Facebook feed so naturally had to have a look, looks like a Smok xcube 2 and a velocity RDA with an LG battery.
Thoughts folks?

I think if you carry spare batteries there are ways to do so safely. Know I have
seen fireproof battery bags at Discount Vapors site. Fairly sure a lot of other
vaping vendors, on-line or B&M also carry similar bags.

Sure, a battery just blowing up at random obviously can and does happen.
It is obvious too, ways exist to mitigate risks. Also obvious those people who
are stupid do not desire accepting personal responsibility, or taking means to
mitigate risks.

Come on now, if you know batteries can just blow up at random,
is it not plain logic to take precautions to mitigate risks?

Of course, possibly too much to think anyone thinks any more.

Enough of that nonsense. We're having a serious discussion here. I'm learning a lot. If you're not going to help, at least take some pointers.

ALL JOKES ASIDE

We should all have some common sense and treat all batteries with respect no matter the size or power etc

I would never put a loose unprotected battery in my pocket like i would never put loose ammo in my pocket either as they both have the potential to cause serious damage if mishandled or mistreated

batteries like ammo should always be in a protective case when not in use

common sense

play safe
