Ouch!

I HATE it when that happens!

Are lithium batteries in these things?
To: Citizen Zed
I wish they would name the brand and battery.

His father said he had a fractured neck.
I kind of doubt that.

Sounds like he sucked a lot of unburned vapor into his mouth and then it detonated.
To: Citizen Zed
That's what happens when you buy those cheap e-hookahs from the damned Indians running the convenience stores around here. They put them in a case right next to the incense and the table of $20 work boots.

What did he put in the thing? An ether extract of cannabis?

Most likely an 18650 battery.

There’s nothing in the vapor that’s flammable. And other than the battery, there’s nothing in an e-cig that could explode.

OK... so no more vaping nitromethane or hydrazine.

Vaporized nicotine is an organic vapor.
I guarantee you it will burn.

It was one of those thermobaric e-cigs.
To: Citizen Zed
Wait, this can't be right. Southerners only have one front tooth, not two.
I couldn't resist...sorry.

Why an 18650? Aren't they one of the safest (assuming that it wasn't a knockoff)? My guess would be one of those "hybrid" mods, where the atomizer directly contacts the battery. I am interested in your answer, because I am waiting on a nemesis that I plan on using the 18650s in.

To: Citizen Zed
The hole in the roof of the mouth is serious, but first degree burns?? As in equivalent to superficial sunburn without blisters?
I presume this is actually another instance of the level of literacy in technical subjects (in this case medicine) prevalent among journalism school graduates and the author meant third degree burns.
