Okay guys, first of all, sorry if this is in the wrong section, was unsure where to post this warning.. I just want to show you guys my experience with eGo chargers.. I'm unsure of where I got this one, I think it came with my Vision Spinner battery, I'm pretty sure the supplier just bundled it with a crappy cheapy one.. Here's what happened to mine:

I noticed after a weird flashing occurred on the LED, the battery LED was constantly flashing, I noticed that the plastic had caved in and I thought I had stepped on it or something, but nope! The whole thing was melting and it smelt absolutely horrible, I opened it up and I noticed that one of the capacitors on the PCB had burnt out.. Be careful with chargers and NEVER leave batteries charging unattended, this could've caused a serious problem if it had caught fire.. Please be safe everyone!
