Mech mod disfigures a e-cig user, sad.

[Robert Cromwell]

Nope, It just says we can't order on-line. Purchases have to be made face to face as in B&M store.

if the out of state vendor get the proper license from Arkansas they can sell there. But few will I suspect.

 

[Hans Wermhat]

I see. Are they taxing you to death?

That's true, however .... as it fails, it mushrooms causing it to seal .... then the casing ruptures.
After the mushroom seals .... the top vent might no longer be part of the equation.
We went through this extensively here on ecf a couple of years ago. The only "safe" vent goes the full length of the tube.

To that logical extreme I agree. If there isn't enough space for the top to pop as designed it go boom.

Yep, few will. I've already received some "I'm sorry but we will no longer be able to sell to you" messages

We pay sales tax on EVERYTHING. Love the short time we lived in Texas. No sales tax on food. Here it is everything and some of it is 9% and up

What's up with ICR batterys?

Much less likely to go Boom.
Same with IMR.

I have been arguing in another thread that conventional bottom venting is generally poor design. It appears like a case where one person came up with venting at the bottom, then other manufacturers copied it by making holes in the bottom, without ever putting a second thought into it.

Some mods have positive terminals facing down with vent holes, I assume for that reason?

i think that's the INR batteries you are thinking about?


then there's the NCR batteries.....
the c is for cobalt i believe....

Maybe.... I had the impression that all non Lion batteries were less likely to go boom.

I think that all of them will vent if overly abused and if that pressure has no place to go... BOOM!
The other types just tend to vent less violently I think. But I am likely wrong.

Batteries explode, doesn't have to be user error, sometimes they just explode, google cellphone explodes and see what pops up, a bunch of people with bleeding ears...

It's a risk we all take when vaping, I don't vape under .4 ohms to lower that risk...

Those are just the CIA issued cell phones

 

[RipCigs]

Why aren't there more mechs with magnetic doors? No venting systems required, if the battery starts getting dangerous the magnetic door will pop and no kaboom. If i'm not mistaken that is.

Much less likely to go Boom.
Same with IMR.

ICR = Lithium cobalt (will go BOOM)
IMR - INR = Lithium manganese or Lithium Nickel-manganese (will vent)
LIPO = Lithium Polymer (will go BOOM)

 

[Wake'n'Vape]

hmmm.... ICR ok to use in a regulated box mod or am I better off looking for some IMR?

Li-MN is the safest.

ICR batteries should not be used for vaping .... PERIOD!

Li Mn (Lithium Manganese) = IMR

 

[Wake'n'Vape]

Strange since these ICR batterys in my istick are made by aspire... what would you suggest instead?
