FAA tells airlines to remind flyers that checking e-cigs is a bad idea

[5150sick]

I actually don't know how I feel about this one but from this:

"The danger may be increased when users modify and rebuild their reusable e-cigarette devices and interchange original and aftermarket batteries, heating elements, and vaporizing components,"

Interchange original and aftermarket batteries?

The only thing I own that came with a battery is an original Vaposhark DNA30.

I HAD an MVP 2 but my Girlfriend has kept it and calls it HERS

Basically everything I own "may" "potentially" "maybe" "possibly" increase "danger" on a plane

I do agree that your mods should not be in your luggage under the plane.

That's where all the ones (along with batteries) being shipped to us by the USPS are!

"I do agree that your mods should be in your luggage under the plane."
I edited this in the above post.

I am glad I re read this.

I accidentally AGREED the vaping product should be in the luggage!!!

I think they should NEVER go under the plane.

Then if a mod got turned on under the plane in your luggage it could fire and start a fire.

All vaping gear that goes on to a plane with a passenger should be in a carry on bag above your seat for safety reasons.
or in your pocket

Agreed on that...

Plus they won't get "disappeared" by sticky fingers in the baggage inspection part of the luggage

I know that a rapper (I think "Nelly") had over a million dollars worth of jewelry stolen by a baggage con artist.

He got caught of course.

Most of the stuff had colored diamonds and was 1/1 so he wouldn't have been able to get rid of it anyway.

The ones who snatch one small item and make the passenger think "I probably just forgot to pack it" are the scumbags who get away with it for decades.

That is really stupid.

They already have a really, really good job!

Why would an idiot risk losing a good job in order to take something that isn't even worth a couple hours pay?

The person has to be a total waste of flesh to do something like that!
