    Not on here but if I recall correctly, someone did experience a battery venting.

    Yes.

    I came close. I had a battery seriously vent. Turned out to be a VTC5 copy.
    It happened in a mech mod, so no electronics to destroy. The battery was shot to hell, but mymod and dripper were still good. Heck, I still use them, three years after the event.

    SIDE NOTE: While I do love my regulated mods, my mech mods can withstand a lot more punishment and still work. My Cartel, Masada, and Nemesis mech mods are my go-to mods and at least one is always in use.

    It's regulated. You get to fiddle with all sorts of settings. Mech mods have two settings - on and off. Gotta be careful with a mech mod as a lot can go wrong and there is no safety built in. But the danger is half the fun!

    Hi mate. Not a stupid question. I wince when I think of my early posts, when I was just starting out. We've all been there.
    There's a good vid on here somewhere showing what can happen. The rest is just a few anti vaping stories in the tabloid press. They never mention that the victim probably used a two dollar flashlight battery.

    The rest is common sense. Don't charge the battery near inflammable material, don't leave unattended, don't use batteries with damaged wraps. I use a blast bag just in case.

    Happy vaping. You've got more chance of winning the Euromillions lottery than blowing your head off.
