Not just vapers, but anyone who uses a device reliant on lithium batteries.

I thought it was important as it specifically names the battery make - Efest.

Batteries are one thing, effects on health are another. I came across something not long ago whereby as a news item a doctor was quoted as saying that as the worst case scenario of pulmonary abnormalities there have been examples of holes appearing in the lungs of otherwise perfectly healthy young individuals. I can't find this article but I think I am correct in saying that there were limited yet worrying numbers of cases. All the patients with the worst examples had vaping in common. I think some of these had life threatening effects. I notice that googling "vaping hole in lung" brings up results plus an additional result category of "vaping hole in brain".

Which is the vaping flavour you use ?

I recall an IT teacher at Adult Education classes warning us of the dangers of carrying loose rechargeable batteries for our digital cameras in our pockets. They can short out causing nasty burns near the nether reasons . I always carry spare AA's in a plastic compartmentalised box.

And the moral of the report is that vaping is a really nasty event. Just say, "No!"

Self-inflicted?
