That guy in the video probably tightened the button down so hard he pushed the pin on the atomizer in.


He would have had to crank the top cap down as it sort of works like a telescopic mod. That would cause it to crush the battery or the atty post.
The switch housing has a stop.
He may have backed the button up (which is how you unlock the mod) to far, which would back the copper contact off the post.
Creates an instant auto fire situation.

These mods are for very knowledgeable vapers only.

I gave them the what for for sending me that crap. So it's all good.

It angered me reading it if I'm honest, I was going to copy and paste but it's a couple of days back down the feed. He basically goes into "detail" how "He always gets it checked and maintained by the shop when he first got it" (not my bad grammar that's how he said It,so do you get it checked or did they just put it together would my question)
He says a lot of things but not the mod, I guarantee he blew himself up because of stupidity on an unregulated mod/much.
The post was full of self pity and absolutely no responsibility, also putting the blame onto the shop because he probably is going to try and sue.

Here's one from a friend of mine, a former smoker:

I saw him over Christmas and I hadn't seen him since I quit smoking and took up vaping. I pulled out my vape to take a hit and he had a very alarmed look on his face.

I sez, "What?"

He goes, "I was listening to John Tesh on the radio last week and he said those things are dangerous! That could blow up on you, you know!!!"

So I blurt out, very loudly, "OH NO! JOHN TESH SAID THEY'RE DANGEROUS? HE MUST BE RIGHT!!!".

For about two seconds he thought I was serious, then we both laughed. :D

"Those things explode", "You get popcorn lung from it", "They have anti-freeze in them".
I hear these 3 narratives from the uneducated and always do my best to convince them otherwise.
It's interesting how people are so very firm in their beliefs in these narratives due to it being the first bit of information they read and absorb on the topic. The media is a powerful tool, such a shame to see it being used to this extent where it will sway a person away from a product that can make them healthier.

Vape onnn...
