Will submit support ticket when I can, but upon opening up my container that holds the ipro, I noticed a horrible smell and smoke. the unit is extremely hot. I am scared to remove the batteries. What the heck do I do now???? Should I let it cool down..??? ahhhh
Need IMMEDIATE help**

OK most likely the button was STUCK ON in the case. Let it cool down ( check to see if you see a blue led on ! ) in not remove the batts and let it cool fully.
after that test it with NO atty/carto attached , it should act normally ( red led no switch/ blue led with switch pressed ) if it works normally try it with a carto / atty .
Like I said most likely it had the button depressed while it was in the case.
Let me know please .

I doubt there is anything wrong with your IPro, the case pushed the button down most likely...
I destroyed a carto that way in my BP, let it all cool off for 30 min, swap the batteries, and put a fresh carto on, and mine fired up like nothing ever happened.

Kimmy that must of scared the bejeezus out of you! I always turn my bottom cap off when I put my BP in my purse or pocket.
Ahh yes, it did scare the living day lights out of me...especially the smell. First for everything I guess.
I gave the batteries some time to cool down and all seems to be okay again.
Thanks for the fast response..I didn't know what to do!!

Good to hear !! , next time turn it OFF when storing it ok ? that way it CANNOT turn on in the case.
We got your back Kimmy !!
I think we're all a little paranoid about battery issues right now, but it's certainly better to be safe than sorry.
Great reminder that I need to use my shut off more often. I usually turn it off at bedtime, and it stays on the rest of the time. Of course I hardly ever store it further than my pocket, and rarely for more than a few minutes. 
I will try to get in the habit of using the on/off feature more often.
