am i being very obsessive

I take my batterys out of my vapes when traveling. I put them in zip up pouches that are meant for batterys. before I go to bed I remove the batterys. do I have to do this? I've got aegis legend and just got a sinuous v80. I went into a vape shop where I got the aegis from. the lady in the shop said its a safe mod and I don't have to remove the batterys. then I thought i'm I going over the top with removing batterys? it only takes a sec to do. it stops me worrying.

That's a good habit. I know I should do all that but don't always have the discipline.

Basically an unattended mod shouldn't have a battery in it.

Edit: The chances of a mod misfiring is low but it does happen. The chances of it happening with no batteries in it is zero.

If it stops you worrying crack on

I personally don't, but you're taking the tiny risk of a malfunction and making it even less. So fair play.

buy a fire/blast proof safe

personally I think you might be a little over cautious
but I like living on the edge

best not watch this video if you are paranoid about battery safety.....



yes that is silly shit, as Crimewatch used to say - don't have nightmares
stay safe vapers

If it stops you worrying then fine, it doesn't hurt.

I have 5 devices within reach that it's impossible to remove the battery without breaking it...

Plus my phone, and the wife's phone. And a couple of tablets.

And a laptop (powered by 6 18650s).

And a li-ion powered head torch.


I don't bother taking cells out of my mods...

I've only got one 18650 mod
the rest are all "built in" trusted makes

the Aegis is pretty sound - I'd say if you are using genuine good quality 18650's
I reckon I wouldn't fret so much
(on the Aegis I reckon you need to worry about using cheapo iffy batteries than the mod itself
or cheap lower spec/badly rated 18650's if you are really pushing up the watts - that is dodgy)

BUT - it is up to you, and can't be too careful if it puts your mind at rest

@lene I think it’s good that you’ve got into this habit. You had an incident recently didn’t you, where your mod was firing in your bag? I remember you saying that you also had batteries in a case in the same bag - that incident could of been a whole lot worse if those batteries weren’t in a case. It’s a very good thing to be safety conscious, these batteries are powerful and a lot of people get lazy and forget that

yes it put the shits up me!

yes it put the shits up me!

if it worries you then keep doing it.
it would take me a few hours to take all the batteries out of mine so ive never bothered.
28 mods next to me all batteried up. 7 of them are internal batteries and nothing you can do with them.
