18650 Battery Safety

[RustyOldNail]

Plastic & silicone cases and wraps are good for transportation, a fireproof case is meant for home STORAGE, hence my initial recommendation. Only you can determine your tolerance for safety. Always make sure you have FIRE INSURANCE for home or apartment, and hope your neighbors follow proper battery safety storage and usage guidelines.

There are many products that have evolved since I bought the “BatSafe” brand, so do your own research.
I keep my BatSafe box in my unused fireplace as added insurance, hopefully you’ll never experience a lithium battery fire, taking all safety precautions as you can might be worth more in the end, then yet another vape device you probably don’t need……

I only have 1 18650 that came with my device. Now that I have an external charger with 4 ports. I am looking to get some extras. I have read that you should stay away from amazon, so can someone direct me to the best online seller for reliable 18650s? I am in the US if that matters.
