Innokin Giveaway! Ask Phil and Dimitris anything :)

[chellie]

Since battery charging was mentioned, I thought I’d share this. I always have my charger on a metal surface in case something happens. Well, I found my garage full of smoke Wednesday. I had two 18650 batteries charging and had just walked past the charger about five minutes before I found this. I won’t charge again without putting the charger in a LiPo safety bag.

Wow - thank Goodness no one hurt and it doesn't seem to be too much damage. I had one of those bags and then I was paranoid about that because I thought it did not let any air in--- may have to rethink it.

I monitor my charger too but do admit to leaving the room briefly. Kind of a good thing you left for a few. I try to leave my charger on concrete -- I have a brick for that purpose rather than metal.

Some years back I heard an explosion in my garage - sounded like someone was shot. My car battery exploded. It was garaged but parked on the side near the dryer. I now park on the other side!

Nice giveaway guys!
@Dimitris and @pbusardo how do you guys handle all the negative things some people throw your way? How do you guys stay focused and motivated?
I mean, when you guys did the study, some people kept complaining about irelevant stuff instead of just doing their part in trying to help this industry. And this is just one example.
Also, The Smokers Show is great!

Also, we have been having a discussion on the Zenith thread and how the coils refuse to DIE. (Not necessarily a bad thing) but I know I tried many things to kill my first coil (using commercial juice, turning up the wattage to inadvisable levels, etc.)

Nice one Dexter, that's attempted murder.

They were the LG HG2 batteries. I bought most of my batteries from illumn but have bought some from different vendors. I'm not sure how old they were or how many cycles on them. I probably should but don't keep track of charge cycles. I have several two battery mods and don't always use the same batteries in the same mod. I had been using them in an aegis legend kit that I'm getting ready to review before charging them. I would guess that most of my batteries are around a year old. I did buy a new set a month or so ago but these weren't it.

I also thought I might mention that I don't run anything over 40 watts on a dual battery mod normally so I don't think that I've been overloading the batteries.

Do you think it could be a charger issue?...or no way to tell?

I can't say 100% for sure but think it was a battery failure since the right bay is so melted. I found one battery beside the charger and the other had launched about ten or twelve feet away.

Have I won yet?

I know I am not Phil or Dimitris,...
Apple, Samsung, and even a $100,000 Tesla model S electric car is subject .

Wow, I rated your post as a winner! Neil you made something understandable that isn’t very simple for those of us that are not technologically inclined! My own personal aptitude is in other areas of the sciences.

I’m not a newbie, I do know enough to build coils, I know for safety that when l’m building coils, l have to refer to the steam engine calculator. It’s a gotta do thing, so I do it. I watch videos and read batterymooch on this site etc nevertheless, as I put it, I still have 1 of my 2 training wheels on lol.

Throughout your post I had several lightbulb (pun unintended) moments. It was like pieces of a puzzle were being snapped together, I have to add that the puzzle is far from completion. Regarding coil building, you made ohms law fit in and make more sense.

You sir deserve a trophy for your ability to clearly articulate things and make it understandable
Thank you so much!

Maybe you could bring this to the attention of @Mooch he may be of some help and interested. I’m a bit batt phobic and in the past l've felt safer with mods that have an internal battery... I have more reading to do.

Nice one Dexter, that's attempted murder.

To be honest, I kinda wish I was Dexter, really. His life looks a LOT less stressful than mine, and I'd be properly made up for TV. I see benefits. LOL.
