Make sure your batteries are in good shape, married sets, and your mod is LOCKED
AND SPARE BATTERIES ARE IN A GOOD CASE OR BATTERY COMDOM OR BOTH

Just how many lighters have exploded when handled properly? Oh, none? Well hot damn! Turns out that Li-ion batters are to be handled properly too. Who'd have guessed?! Lock the device and in it's own pocket. Idiots...

I had one of those cheap chinese pre recall catch fire a few years back. Lit a nag champa stick set the lighter down and a couple minutes later hear a whooshing sound and go into the room where the lighter was to see it spewing an 8' flame out the side.

The metal retained the heat and melted the pressure valve. and flames.

I stand corrected. That failure was due to manufacture error or defect.

Maybe this is God's hand at population control? We surely don't need his contribution to the gene pool, it already is shallow and murky.

so you can tell that it was a battery that pulled out of his pocket and that it was not burning?
you have really good eyes. - what if he had more than one battery and one lit up and the other didn't?
I have no doubt that what is shown is a battery hardshorting.

What I didn't get was why, if this is a GAS STATION ("petrol") he ran OUTSIDE WHERE THE GAS PUMPS ARE to dump something burning. It's like, it's not sufficient to him that HE got burned, he wants everyone in a 5 block radius to get burned too? I have to wonder if this guy should be let out of the house, nevermind vape with powerful batteries.

I saw a story on one of the news sites about Li-pos and this guy and video were mentioned. It said he took the batteries out of his mod and put them in his pocket. His comment was "I didn't know they would do that". I wish I would have saved it to post here.

Yeah I know.
Personally I think anybody interested in using a mechanical mod should watch the first 8:26 minutes of the video linked in that article.

So true a unlocked device and a pocket equal exploded pants!

Looking past the scenario, only 2 dozen fires in that long amount of time should confirm just how misinformed people really are...

If sufficient heat is expelled under the canopies in my are the entire station would be flooded with fire retardant! No worries about setting the station on fire. I need to go back and look to see if the station has a canopy............

If you have ever been witness or involved in one of these events you would not think it is very funny. I have many years of working in Auto Repair Shops so I have witnessed this first hand.
