highpass Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Is the battery going to explode from this combination? A dumb question but I thought I'd better ask.
bcartervol98 Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Not sure how it could. If the clearo fits, vape that s$#t! spydre 1
Jeffb Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Ive never heard of an ego batt exploding with a nano attached.
highpass Posted October 17, 2013 Author Posted October 17, 2013 Well I'd read about mini 510 batts exploding with certain cartos and got paranoid about my setup. The combo works great so far Why exactly causes batteries to go berserk? Just so I know what not to do

Just so I know what not to do ***Not a battery expert I have never read or heard of a credible story of a battery exploding while in use, always when being charged and for me 100% of those i have read about were either being charged on a laptop or in a hot car which are both no-nos in my book. I have yet to read of one that exploded when using the wall outlet adapter which I am pretty sure adds another layer of protection. Also cheap knockoff batteries seem to be more prone to these problems. I think when charging a battery there are 3 layers of protection. First the battery itself should have overcharge protection and be vented, second the USB adapter has overcharge protection, and third the wall outlet adapter adds another layer of protection. I will only buy brand name batteries from reputable sources and will only charge it in a wall outlet and I feel completely safe doing so BUT I still never leave one charging unattended and always have them in a metal container while charging. If any of the above is incorrect, someone please correct me. spydre 1

Tam Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 I've got Nano clearomizers and have used them with my eGo batteries with no problem at all. You should be fine. Plus, I'll third what bcarter said.

When I corrected someone's INCORRECT assumption the other day on facebook about vaping beimg extremely bad for you, someone else responded to be careful, that there are reports coming out about batteries exploding. I THEN had to explaij that in all cases, it was determined that tthe battery was being charged INCORREFTLY - ie, the wrong charger, out in the sun or hot car where the temp of the batt could get extremely high, on bedding so the same issue,,, or being charged off a computer, ehich, I believe, has no overcharge protection. At least if you plug the USB port into a cell phone charger, it has that protection. She neger responded to me.
Aquatroy Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Be careful.. The electric nazis will come out and find you!! But you're spot on.....l
Jeffb Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 (edited) When buying ego type batteries I recommend only buying genuine Joyetech or Vision batts. They both are made with over charging and short circuit protection in the battery. I read through a few of the exploding battery stories and it appears they were using off brands. eta...... beware my opinion is biased Edited October 18, 2013 by jeffb
highpass Posted October 18, 2013 Author Posted October 18, 2013 Ah. I'm not so bothered about a battery exploding during charging, more so it blowing up in my face during usage. But as far as I can tell the people that occurred to were stacking/using them in ways not intended, is that right? I need this info to stop my girl worrying. If she had her way I'd have a bullet proof glass shield in between the battery and cart. tldr: pairing the wrong carto/clearo etc with the wrong batt is not dangerous?

You cannot pair the wrong tank with the wrong battery. If the threading fits, it works. Most have outer threading (Ego) and inner threading (510) and both styles work equally well on most (if not all) batteries that I have used or know about including standard Egos, Vision Spinners, and now the Vamo.
