Hey Zionites! TheZionNextDoor and I have been spending a lot of quality time together over the last several days, thought I would share some experiences with you. First, TheDumbassDudeNextDoor dropped and broke his 18/14 adapter before he even had a chance to use it. Another on the way and...

They're waiting for the full release before moving the thread.

Stealth flower is what I would be most interested in next as well. I want a convection concert vape that I can pair with a Smoke Buddy Jr. that actually works well without making me feel like I am putting a spotlight on myself. I have tried several, and it's always the same: Either stealth...

That is the Nirvana Ice indeed. Name? TheZionNextDoor naturally. It really ties the room together nicely.

This setup will be getting some play tonight.

Just got notification that my Zion is currently making its way to my humble abode. Got my batts, elbs, water tower, 14/18 GonG connector, and some sweet Nirvana Ice standing by. I should be able to do some testing and reporting back this weekend! So pumped!

The above examples are extreme, and it's very likely that these mods autofired by shifting in the vehicle when the door closed, etc., and that is what caused the venting rather than the interior heat. From what I can tell with my research, the ambient temp would have to reach 340 degrees for a...

Indeed, which is another reason why awareness is important. People treat these things like AAs, and they are not.

LOL. Truth.

It's an excellent question that I asked myself as well. I did research the photos but could not find anything definite. More than likely, it was not just the heat but a combination of intense heat and faulty batteries. Bottom line is that intense heat is definitely damaging to the batteries and...

Here's a good illustration of why you don't want to leave these devices in a hot car. The first three pics were from a car with a dual-18650 box mod in the console and the last one was from an IPV3 (also dual 18650) in the driver's-side door of another car. The mods were left in the cars for +/-...

Absolutely agreed, which is why I prefaced the video. But it is kind of hard to define "blow up" any more specifically without using an example, other than just providing synonyms.

My point was not to scare anyone but to answer the question "What do you mean by 'blow up'?"

New thread concerning 18650 safety here.

Yes, that was the rule I was considering. Thanks for the clarification.

This is a controlled short that shows what can happen when an 18650 shorts out. I'm not suggesting this WILL happen, just illustrating that these batteries pack a lot of power, and you want to take precautions to insure something like this doesn't happen. The first and most important step is to...

Maybe it's safe. Maybe it's not. You'll know if it blows up. Seriously, man, these batteries can be incredibly dangerous if misused. Err on the side of caution. That charger I linked is $25 and it's an excellent charger. What's a life or limb worth? Plus, it's a 4-bay charger, and you will...

Concerning batteries...I would recommend Samsung 25Rs. You won't find them cheaper than here. Reputable seller also. Beware -- fakes do exist, and you don't want to fuck around with battery safety. Personally, I have and love the Luc V4 charger. I have also heard great things about the Nitecore.

"Two-part gizmo" IS the technical term. lol

Just bought some new elbs last week. I am ret to go!
