Help with safety concerns regarding high wattage devices

[Imfallen_Angel]

If they aren't smart enough to set up a VCR how are they setting up the fancy whazoo vape gizmo box they just bought? How are they labeling and keeping the batteries married in the multiple battery mod they just bought? I'm much more fearful of the multiple battery mods than I am of mechs TBH! When they start going off it's gonna be real bad!
I don't have the answers and I'm not trying to fight with you, but read through the new members section some night. Read about how they went out and bought this 1000 watt mod and the vendor recommended they buy these 60 amp 5000mah batteries to go in it! It's scary! It's not just the end user, there has to be education for sellers of this equipment as well.

I have and seen it in person multiple times... kids walk in going "I want something really badass!" the stores I deal with will give them proper advice and even refuse to sell anything but a decent "beginners" kit (but still something quite decent)... so I completely agree on what you're saying.

I have 15 mechs and I am stocked. JUst because I don't like high wattage doesn't mean I'm stupid. I just don't care to push the envelope anymore.

No one's calling you anything, but you are at the point where I'm not sure what your point is... you don't believe in cloud chasing, we get that. Is there something else?

And for myself, I'm just starting to make my liquid simply because there's three of us in my home that vapes and it's getting expensive as I do find liquids to be overpriced. I understand the profit thing, but it's a bit crazy when "good" stuff is 30$ and up for a 30ml bottle. Especially once you know how much liquid is really worth.

It is harder to bake a cake than make your own eliquid. Once you learn what you like it is just basic. All this crap about making liquids in the bathtub is sick propaganda. I think I am becoming an activist in my old age. The msm media is responsible for this fraudulent education of the masses and scaring them. Just as it is with politics. Who stands to benefit that is what you have to decide.

I would like people to learn from my mistakes of a 47 year smoking journey. I thought everyone who thought it stunk was giving me crap. It stinks and it's a sick habit that has been made worse by the additives of the tobacco companies. They have gotten away with it because they have deep pockets and many politicians in their grasp. This countries love of money will destroy it. I had no clue how bad I stunk until I started vaping ...what a shock. It took about 7 months and that was it. As I washed my walls and mirrors of that yellow residue I learned a valuable lesson. I now no longer buy many chemicals, everything is GMO free and I no longer trust what I read in the media or from any ,gov agency

Well, Everyone in here has a story, and I would think that everyone that smoked and went to vaping knows exactly what you're saying, probably not 47 years, but we all understand ... I know that I never liked cigarette smell, but I dealt with it (as I've mostly been a non-smoker, only casual and never addicted) My wife and daughter though were hard core, and cigarette smoke makes them gag now.

My father died of emphysema a few years ago, and I've seen a lot of my family die from cancer... so vaping should be a top priority for governments to study, regulate ONLY to ensure quality and at this point, get it out there to get the smokers to quit cigarettes.

Trouble is.. no money trucks like with cigarettes, and that's why the push back... it's like they want people to keep or go back to smoking.
