I will share my dumb mistake I made yesterday. So me and my dad went in Arby's and I sat my mod(panzer) down in the door pocket and didn't realize that I didn't lock it. We was in there Mabye 5-10 minutes and when I looked in the window noticed all the smoke I knew what happend. I immediately picked my mod up (was super hot) and somehow managed to the my Vtc4 out and throw it on the ground just incase it was gonna vent. I had a chuff cap on my plume veil that was completely melted all down my atty. It got so hot it melted the plastic floating pin in my panzer. And it melted the center pin insulator on my plume veil. Was a dumb mistake and will definitely make sure my mod is locked when I sit it down. Thought I'd share my story with everyone else.

I was a bit messed up one night and did the same thing with my nemesis with a kayfun on top. I passed out and my girlfriend heard it hissing and threw it in the back yard.

Good thing they sell replacement insulators for the kayfun, cuz mine melted right down. Lucky for me it never actually shorted, and the battery was fine.

I only buy mechs now that have recessed buttons.
