Youth gets badly burned after e-cigarette blows up in his face.

Anyone ever here of this happening? Thoughts on this? Worried about it? Inexperience and carelessness by the user?

I was curious if this was just random so did a quick google search and it is surprising how many results of this kind showed up. So if people aren't following safety, it says something about these things anyway. You know most people skim over safety things and the little pieces of paper that say "read first". So what is the answer, tighter regulations, which is what they are pushing here or something else. Human nature is always more is better, we do it with everything. This forum, perfect example, OC our everything we can, modify our cars to go faster. Should they design these things so they can only output so much reducing this risk? Its like "do not mix red bull with alcohol" sticking that kind of warning on something just makes the irresponsible ones out there want to try it.

The simple answer is there's a WHOLEEEEEEEE lot of idiots out there who will never fully appreciate the danger they're putting themselves into when using sub-ohm coils. Then there's a whole lot of very smart, dodgy characters taking advantage of this untapped pool of idiots by selling them 6A batteries to go with their 0.15ohm coils (which need MINIMUM 25A) and hence... explosions xD

Realistically what can happen? Ideally all mod makers incorporate some sort of functionality into their mods which will measure battery capability and adjust wattage accordingly. Likewise lower-end mods with in-built batteries should just say ''incompatible coil'' when some retard screws a TFV4 with 0.15ohm coils onto his iStick 10w. Unfortunately this I assume is expensive or otherwise difficult... so really... I dont know. It appears vaping's success is the biggest issue, when people see me on campus at uni blowing smoke clouds while I head to my next class they think ''wow that's cool'', and they want to get involved. Unfortunately without a pretty in-depth knowledge of ohm's law and battery safety stuff how can a noobie be expected to put together a safe build? I learnt everything about ohm's law in A-Level physics... how many people actually take physics for 2 years? 5% of the population? maybe 2%?

I'm rambling now but yeah
Maybe the constant news stories of people blowing up will scare enough people away that only the people willing to take the time to learn this stuff will vape. Who knows.

Ohm's law applies here guy's but most decent Mods will have a safety cut-off anyway and this kind of thing I would always seriously advise somebody to do a lot of research into it before even thinking about it.

 

[MrKambo]

So ordered these today to try

 

[iBeInspire]

Bought a velocity mini clone off amazon for 10 quid, spent 2 hours making some coils... result

 

[MrKambo]

these showed up today

 

[Tolemac]

Just getting used to my I sub G awesome clouds

 

[MrKambo]

I fancy grabbing another mod and tank for daily use, the subox isn't that powerful so have to use thin juices, the fuchai is too big to keep in my pocket so need a happy medium, maybe a evic etc mini, not sure what tank....

How is that minivolt? I'd never heard of it so I had a quick google and it's only 30 quid... seems epic as a device to grab when out and about. Is the 1300mah an issue?

I'm envisioning the minivolt with a tiny rda would be so cool something like this :

Well i've only had it a day, bought it specifically to use for work, as it sits in my pocket, and it passed the first day at work with a 80% charged battery, and when i got home it was about 20%, im using it a 22.5w @ 0.56ohms

I want a small RDA for it, but I'd rather have the juice capacity, but believe me its freaking tiny so so so epic!

 

[MrKambo]

Some more juice was ordered today

​

Think im gonna stop, still got juice steeping from about a month ago

I have about 80ml of different juices the one I'm vaping right now is blackcurrant and liquorice and I LOVE IT. I was going to make my own liquids but it seems we are in for big changes in the vaping market this year look up Article 20 TPD it seems they want to clamp down on vaping as well "sighs".

Yeah i've been keeping my eyes on this, we shall see how it turns out

 

[Tolemac]

yeah we will find out in May

 

[Greenback]

I use to have a Vamo V5 but I noticed I was getting a lot of chest and sinus infections when I was vaping, back on normal cigs I have not had a chest or sinus infection since April last year.

Prior to that I was getting one every 3 months or so, some people have said it could be due to the mixture of the VG/PG fluid, I would love to go back to vaping but honestly I don't know what mixture to use.

When I first gave up smoking I had a lot of that, it turns out I have asthma and smoking covers it up. I found out when I ended up in hospital after a severe asthma attack

Dude starting DIY is like one of the best things I ever did... I used to vape conservatively cause the cost was really high, I would feel guilty vaping 10+mls a day... now I vape maybe 30+ on some days and don't even think about it twice since a 30ml batch costs me maybe 50p to make

I understand that but we "may" have new legislations coming in on the 20th may as i'm a guy that was addicted to nicotine at 15 I would say the fuhrer's are out to get us and tax more fella
