I'd like to know that as well. I'll bet money that his battery didn't have the proper amperage for his build.
Another mod explodes

We had some Canadiens visiting at work last year for about 6 months... That's all I'll say about that subject...
That would Probably would be a Relatively Safe Bet.
The Long and the Short of it is that is a mod has Enough Venting, it Shouldn't Explode. Get Very Hot? Sure. Maybe act like a Bottle Rocket Briefly? Maybe.
But a MOD shouldn't ever Need to Explode.
And One Vent Hole in Battery Cap Isn't Enough if the Battery Swells when all the Electrons try to Exit the Battery at the Same Time.
May I see your passport please.
I figured he was talking about the Montreal Canadiens
They were from Quebec...
That isn't because you're such a rebel.
We've all been trying to find a way to tell you...
I've been making silly jokes to keep it lite in here ... thanks for your indulgence. But the issue is serious.
Government regulation is not the answer. In fact, I can't think of anything licensed & regulated by our so called elected servants that I would consider a true, 100% success - one in which I'm happy fed/state/county officials with their bloated organizations are involved in. Not one.
But we have dangers, some real, some bloated way out of proportion and all sanity with vaping.
Its a knee jerk reaction to blame the end-user. And way too easy. Anyone on the front lines of customer service facing the public knows one truth .... people are stupid. And do stupid things. I personally will vouch for this, I've unfortunately exhibited way more than my share of stupid!
Stupid users are a given, and there's no amount of any regulation that will stop them. But what we really need to look at is the industry. Mod makers manufacturing devices that have no or way too little venting ports. Battery makers putting total BS on amperage ratings to sell more. Re-wrapping junk batteries with new wrappers of different manufacturers. Absolutely no oversight, or even knowledge, of whats going into a vendors juice.
Can any of this be regulated by feds? Hell no. It needs to be regulated by our free commerce system. The dangerous crap needs to be identified, & self-regulated by the almighty dollar.
And I have no hope this could ever work. As long as end users are willing to save 50 cents by buying their batteries from some unknown fly-by-night ebayer. Or buy juice made in the back of the shop with who knows what.

More exploding mod damage:
Stay safe - Album on Imgur
Apparently, a dead short caused by a subtank on a hybrid.

That's a couple $K in damage. I hope it was his own car. I wonder who is wearing the reflective gear outside the window.
