No!

It was a general statement as to what was going on. I guess it wasn't what I had expected when I saw the title. NOTHING to do with your posts - I promise.

The disrespect in this thread for someone that has died a tragic death is beyond belief.
Only warning - this is not a thread to troll.
Got it ?

Wait, what do you mean First. Are we expecting more? Why?

Well, it was bound to happen eventually, and it's bound to happen again. Nothing is ever entirely safe.

And...which of course should be noted...it was an equipment failure, not the vapor itself that did the damage. I saw somebody post on this incident something like "Ten years from now vapers are gonna be dropping dead with sludge in their lungs". That's like comparing a dropped cigarette burning the house down around you, to lung cancer.

Wow.

My sentiments, preZACTly.

Honestly, I think they've handled it quite well, so far. A guy died, people. Do you really expect the guy reporting the story to say "USER ERROR!!! HE HAD NO BUSINESS RUNNING A MECH! IT WAS AN UNSAFE BUILD TO BEGIN WITH!!! DUAL FUSED STAPLED STAGGERED ALIENS ON A SINGLE 18650 MECH??? NOT TO MENTION, HE WAS USING AN EFEST.....AN EFEST!!!!!"
C'mon. They went as far as to interview a vape shop guy. I'm pretty impressed with their reporting .

Complete OT --- Wait - what's wrong with Efest?? :/

Crap batteries, they rewrap and grossly inflate their capabilities, IMO they're a criminally malicious company.

The Tesla car has 2200 18650 batteries in it, I wonder what would happen if one of them blew ?

Thanks Kat! Well, how the hell was my post off topic? Perhaps @LyLyV should read the whole thread.

 

[Katdarling]

Perhaps LyLy was referring to his/her own post?

Dunno. I'm just a drive by in these parts, so don't mind me.

So WHAT if the question was off-topic, Kat. Ya still coulda answered it. Jeez!

OT stands for Over-Tme, I believe. It's a sports thing (although I'm not sure why sports is a topic in this thread) .




I should probably go no, I expect.

2200? Way low.

The current, top-of-the-line 100 kWh Models S and X have 8256 18650 cells.

The current Model 3 has 4416 total 21700 cells.

Yeah that makes the pic I posted seem less exaggerated.
LOL the only way to make that more dangerous is if the battery housing was made out of C4.
