I don'y know if this is an on-going issue with Siegelis, or just some bizarre coincidence....

Last week, a friend bought a used Seigeli 150 off of someone. When I looked at it, I popped it open to look at the batteries. Naturally, they were crapfest, but what really got me was their condition. Both batteries had edges that were completely frayed...one was so bad that the top cap was rolling upwards exposing the innards of the battery! Needless to say, I was dumbstruck. Wow.

Couldn't really say, I only own one Sigelei (Besides a logo-less Silver Dragon). It's the 75w TC, and with its "push-thru" battery compartment, it's been pretty gentle on battery wrappers.

That being said, battery wrappers can get torn up. A few months after I started vaping, I picked up a few rolls of clear battery shrink wrap off of Fasttech, they still have them for $1.20 for a two meter roll. I have so far had to re-do eight batteries, and have plenty left. For the price, there's really no good excuse for NOT owning some. They even sell pre-cut sections that are about a dollar for a 50 pack.

4 box mods: 2 - unregulated, 2 - regulated Sigeleis(75W & 150W). No problems with any batteries in any devices.
