I can get lucky and cross the street blindfolded and not be hit by a car, don't mean I am safe to do it or that I can't be hit. Without knowing the extent of defect no way to be certain
Who has the best prices for authentic batteries?

BTW - The SR Home Depot is listed as a Battery Recycling Center if they are not going to be Returned

I didn't mean that literally....sorry . I meant that it was going in an empty trash can in my bathtub. I'll bring it to my work battery recycling program
it's really unknown. Could it simply take a weather pattern change and change in pressure or maybe humidity change or maybe nothing. To me it is akin to always treating firearm's as if they are loaded. Better safe than sorry
That's why I went home in the middle of the day just to put it in a safe spot
This is just my own opinion and preference, but I have a few sets of the red AW button tops that are exclusively for the Provari 2.5's in my collection just because that was what Provape recommended and sold. You can get the shorter ones at provarifuel.com right now, and they are working to source the longer 18650's for their webstore. I think folks have given you links to other places that sell the red AW's as well. The 2.5 was designed to work with the true button top AW's and that length could be important in keeping it running for a while. I took some side by side pictures so you can see the difference between an AW and Samsung.
I have regular flat top 18650's for everything else. Batteries are not that expensive that I think it is worth the extra money to get the right ones for the job and just have a few extra sets around.
without knowing the extent of defect maybe it could dead short itself maybe there is very little in the way keeping the positive post separate, I don't know by just looking at it. Maybe some humidity would do it again don't know. But if you can manage the risk of personal or property damage rather easy why wouldn't youOK... I'll take you word on that Weather Pattern change thing.
Not my first choice of where to put it, but if you do, remember they're in there before a shower or anything.
I'd agree with @dobroeutro , put it back in the original packaging and send it on back when you have an RMA. They might not even want the return, in which case your plan for a battery recycle drop off is the way to go.
Is there any point where you start to Draw Lines when managing Risk?
I mean, should the OP put the Batteries in a Lipo Bag and then have a friend drive Her to HomeDepot while she man's a Fire Extinguisher? And then carries the Batteries into HomeDepot wearing Nomex Gloves and a Full Face Shield?

No one showers in that bathtub [emoji4].
I just felt better having it in my bathroom. Just in case. It's probably fine but I don't want to risk getting battery acid all over my woman's cave
I'm a little concerned with the other batteries that came (I ordered 3 of the same) one of them just died after an hour of use...huh? I don't get why.
Batteries are something I don't really price shop. I found illumn does seem to have very competitive prices and good quick shipping.
"WOMANS CAVE" now that's a new one on me, but I sure don't want you to get battery acid all over it either! Sounds painful!!!!!
