Good day! New member here. As a new vaper, I would just like to know more regarding battery safety. As I was removing my batteries from my MC2 charger one of them got nicked. It's a little tiny but I do not want to take the risk. Is this tiny nick already a cause for concern? If so, would covering it with electrical tape be just as safe as completely rewrapping it again? I'm using this with the Joyetech Cuboid 150w mod, btw. I have uploaded a picture of the battery.

Only thing more dangerous about tape is that it can get yanked off easier than a wrap can be ripped, be aware and careful with that and it's no problem at all.

I just ordered these late last week, 2 different color wraps, some insulators and the shipping with tracking came out to ~$5 I think. That should be enough wraps to last me quite a while (plus now my batteries look silly in clear wrapping). Very easy application, as a man without a hairdryer or heat gun I ended up just using a lighter and keeping the battery 6inches above the flame as I rotated it around until it all tightened up. Just make sure to give it plenty of distance, you're trying to heat it not burn it
, but the hairdryer would have been more ideal, less risk of stupidity and no burnt thumb
If you own a mod with circular battery compartments, too much tape in the wrong places can cause your batt to get stuck.
(My wife's Nebox has a taped 25R stuck in it. Now it's passthrough charging only. The good news is that it freaked me out enough that I bought wraps.)
