E-Cigarette Battery Injures Air Force Veteran

E-Cigarette Battery Injures Air Force Veteran
Welcome to a Medical Battery specialist of the Biocare Battery
Don George of Los Angeles, a retired Air Force veteran, is the latest example of the dangers associated with use of an e-cigarette. George recently filed suit in Los Angeles after being injured when the e-cigarette’s battery exploded, causing permanent scaring to his face and arm. Further, George claims that he had recently changed the battery prior to the explosion, but the device still continued to not work. While trying to determine what was wrong with his e-cigarette, George held the device near his ear in an attempt to hear if the mechanics inside sounded like they were working.
Without further warning, the batter with like Biocare HYLB-683 Battery, Biocare ECG-1210 Battery, Biocare ECG-1200 Battery, Biocare ECG-300 Battery, Biocare ECG-100 Battery, Biocare HYLB-293 Battery, Nihon Kohden BSM-2350 Battery, Nihon Kohden X062/YS-076P5 Battery, Nihon Kohden I 2300 Battery, Nihon Kohden I 2301A Battery, Nihon Kohden SB-201P Battery, Nihon Kohden X076 Batteryexploded in George’s face. According to him, flames began to shoot from the bottom of the e-cigarette’s battery, burning his face, shoulder, and part of his home’s carpet.
While reporting on Don George’s incident, the local newstation KTLA spoke with firefighters who offered a few tips to prevent a similar occurrence. They suggested keeping the e-cigarette devices away from anything flammable or any “soft furnishings,” like carpeting, pillows, etc.
The firefighters also suggested that consumers should not leave e-cigarettes unattended for significant periods of time while charging, and not to use chargers that were not made specifically for and by the brand of particular e-cigarettes.
While these suggestions are all valid and can help prevent similar accidents from happening, unfortunately there seems to be a larger and ongoing problem with temperamental e-cigarette batteries injuring their consumers.
