I bought the e-power from gotvapes last week. It's a workhorse btw, just need to use it a little more before I give a review. I dropped a battery (ICR 14650) on the concrete and when I went to put it in my mod it was swollen to where it would not fit. I got scared it might explode and have not messed with it since. Wanted to know if it's protected, could it still explode? What should I do with it now? Also, I had the other battery and took it off of the charger and noticed that the positive corner of it was a little swollen. Is this normal? This one had not been dropped. I'm a little scared of these things because before the e power I have only ever used egos, etc. Thanks

The batteries that come with the E-Power should be protected and if the one you dropped is deformed, toss it. The other one I'm not sure about, do you mean the heat shrink/wrapping around the battery is lifting up or the actual battery is deformed. I'd contact the vendor on that one before I used it again and let them know. If it's only 1 week old they should replace it. I'd also recommend ordering an extra. as things can happen and when they do you don't want to be without your mod.
