Interesting, I can certainly see two sides to this issue though. Sure these are APV's with the emphasis on the "A". People definitely need to do their homework and should get as much information as possible. Having said that it's way way way easier to buy an APV than to get truly educated on the subject. Also the use of warnings and crystal clear disclaimers is ubiquitous now, in my opinion it wasn't that way just a few years back. Yeah I know it's easier to buy a gun than get truly educated on its proper use, the difference is that the dangers/risks are widely known. A few years ago when I first found vaping, probably the way a lot of people have, at an insanely overpriced mall kiosk it wasn't long before I went looking for something better, it wasn't long before I bought a V3 which came with 2 rcr123a's. I certainly didn't know about any potential concerns, I don't think a lot of people did. They don't sell them that way anymore ,do they? Now there is TONS of information available. Virtually every ecig website I am aware of has highly visible, very clear warnings about batteries and the use of APV's. That's a good thing in my opinion. Bad event, definite end user errors involved. On the whole there is ALOT more information ,discussion ,debate and awareness on the subject of apv risks,safety. Battery safety, quality , do/dont's, etc ,there is an entire library of information out there that is far more disseminated and readily accessible than it was a few years back. This is just my subjective impression , I'm truly sorry for the injured party, and I certainly think that he bears a substantial part of the responsibility for what happened. I'm however glad that the industry as a whole(again my impression) is vastly more safety focused than it was back when. That ways to reduce potential risks is in the forefront , not buried in the marketing/hype. It is easier to be well informed now, and that's a good thing. I agree with twelves comments we should demand comprehensive detailed manuals and information. With vaping having taken on such a home-grown approach, the amount of variation in devices and mods is staggering, I don't think it would hurt the industry as a whole if they could agree on some basic standards. I saw a mod the the other day that warned that this device required you to put the battery in positive down, unlike most devices. I thought wow surely that cant be a great idea to float out there with the rest. Again just my 2 cents and impressions.
