Mod Heating Up?????

Hey guys, sorry if I post this in the wrong place, but I didn't find a sub forum that seems appropriate.

So, I have a BCV Surfrider clone (hybrid) and it has been working great but all the sudden this last weekend I noticed one of my batteries just stopped working.. not a big deal. So I put in another battery. Still not working. So I was playing around and I noticed that my button got extremely hot. I took the battery out and noticed that it was hotter than I've ever felt.

I was playing around with it to see if something is wrong, but everything seems fine. I accidentally put in the battery backwards and it worked fine like how it used to.

Anyone have any idea what is causing this?  

SO every video Ive seen of someone causing a battery to vent it took a few minutes of the battery sizzling and popping and heating up, smoking, etc. So why do people talk about a battery venting like its an imminent threat? As if say you built a 0.1 ohm coil and didnt know it, fired it and it would blow up in your face? I've never seen it happen or heard of that. Not saying it cant, I'm just wondering where the idea that a battery can just instantly combust without notice is coming from.  

So with unrestricted mechanical mods, how does one know how many watts, volts, and amps being applied through ohms law? Is it solely the voltage charge of the battery installed that will determine everything else because of how ohms law works?  

I have a Tank Crossing box mod and when i purchased it the guy in the vape shop said i had to put grease between the connector and the firing button or it could get to hot and fry the switch. He wasnt very specific on what kind of grease, he just said its in a tube at o reillys. All they had in a tube was break grease and my gut tells me thats not a very good idea. Any suggestions or reccomendations for what to actually purchase?  

Like the subject states is that correct ? And a wooden box mod that does have soldered wires and only uses let's say an 18650 battery to fire roughly 3.7 volts would not be a mechanical mod right ?

Hello everyone! My fathers birthday is coming up soon and I'm looking to get him something new to vape on.

He's currently using the Itaste MVP 2.0 and sadly its dying, the only problem is that when he drives it's hard to hit the button. I want to find him a similar one with either a built in battery or replaceable battery's, and the button on the sides not the front or back face. If you guys can help me out that would be awesome thanks so much for the help.  

I have the Dreamer Mod and a Samsung battery 30t 35 A and coil 0,17 ohm, when I use it, the atomizer gets very hot, then after that the battery gets heated up a little, and I'm new to the mechanical mod

Even my agies x batteries get a little hot when i use it

is that normal
please help  

Not sure if this is the right place to post this. Received a silver istick 50 yesterday and a black one today. The black one is good but the silver one will stick if the button is pushed on the bottom part of the button and it'll keep fireing since its stuck. I can get it to release by manipulating the button. Is that something the company will take care of??? I do like the battery!

Thanks

A few days ago I noticed a new co-worker of mine was a vaper. He had some kind of old, ratty looking mech with some kind of tank I'm unfamiliar with on top. This guy doesn't strike me as the type of person who would be responsible with a mechanical, but trying not to be judgmental, I kept quiet. So yesterday a friend of mine says "look at that guy, what's he doing?" I look over and see this guy dancing around, frantically pulling everything out of his pocket. Out comes an 18650 battery, with a key WELDED to the end of it, still throwing arcs! By this time, his pants were actually SMOKING!!! We go over there to investigate, and he had put a fully charged battery without any kind of case or covering in his pocket with a bunch of change and his keys. The old ratty battery no longer even had the plastic shrink wrap sleeve on it, just a silver cylinder. When it was cool enough to touch, we examined it, and the positive terminal had completely burned away, and it had burned a hole in his pocket about the size of a half-dollar. After lecturing him about using a battery case, we asked to see the battery in his mod. He pulled it out and it was in worse shape than the one that shorted out in his pocked. No insulated wrap, big gouges in the side, burnt spots on the positive end. All we could do was warn him to get new batteries and go about our business. I have a feeling our warnings fell on deaf ears. I even showed him my little $0.99 battery case. I can understand someone not being completely knowledgeable about all the technical stuff, but isn't this just common sense? Sigh.
