Whether you like it or not, battery safety is a vital part of vaping. If we don’t want our newsfeeds flooded with stories of teenagers disfigured by exploding vaporizers, we have to spread this knowledge far and wide. So give this article a read. It might just come in handy one day.

A vaporizer battery is nothing special.

It’s nearly identical to the battery you keep in your pocket year-round, inches away from your genitals. I’m talking about the lithium ion in your cellphone. The same type of battery you’ll find in your laptop. And your tablet. And your PS4 controller.

They’re everywhere. And for good reason. Lithium ion chemistries offer plenty of power while staying relatively safe. They’re so safe, in fact, that they are the most common battery type used in medical devices. They’re even attached to human hearts.

Virtually all battery-powered devices released within the last decade use them. They account for almost half of all batteries today.

So why have vaporizer batteries been the focus of so much hate? Aren’t they the same as your cellphone?

Aside from the fact that it’s now cool to hate on vaping, the answer lies not in what they are, but in how they’re used.

While vaporizer batteries are no less safe than cellphone batteries, they are more prone to user error.

You see, major electronic companies have long “idiot-proofed” their batteries.

Cellphone Battery

Your smartphone uses a custom-designed lithium ion, chosen specially to meet the physical demands of the device. It is tested thousands and thousands of times in the most stressful conditions your phone can produce. And then it’s tested some more.

Unless you play “kick-the-battery” or purchase an unofficial knock-off, smartphone batteries are never stressed beyond their safety ratings.

Vaporizers are a little bit more open-source than that.

Many of the devices sold today do not include a “manufacturer approved” battery. It’s up to YOU to choose a battery that can meet the physical demands of your device. And if you don’t know what you’re looking for, it’s pretty easy to choose an unsafe battery.

So, what happens if you choose a bad battery?

“Young dad’s leg turned BLACK after his e-cigarette battery exploded ‘like a firework’ in his pocket”

“Teen recovering from facial, neck burns caused by classmate’s exploding e-cigarette battery”

“Ogden teen hospitalized after e-cigarette explodes”

The good news is that safe batteries are easy to find—if you know what you’re looking for.

If your eyes gloss over when you hear terms like “continuous discharge rating” and “voltage discharge cutoff,” you can scroll down all the way to the bottom, where you’ll find a TL;DR (too long; didn’t read).

The reliability of a brand is the best guarantee of the safety, I am saying this from my own experience. I always order everything related to vaping from the US and a vape shop better known as GypsyVapes, and the best battery in the price-quality correlation is definitely Vision Spinner (a vape pen battery with variable voltage to regulate the heat level for atomizers).

Before getting into the purchase mode of Best Solar Battery for a long time, then make sure to find the respective platform and get to know more about that whenever required.
