When working with or handling rechargeable batteries, there are always risks due to their characteristics, and may explode or burn if mishandled. Below are a few Do’s and Don’ts to ensure battery safety:
- Always keep battery wraps intact. If you notice the battery has frayed, torn, or been damaged please do not use the battery and dispose of it safely.
- Make sure to use a battery case when the battery is not being used. Never place batteries in pockets, bags, etc, this can cause your battery to short circuit if they come in contact with metal objects and may cause the battery to explode.
- When using external batteries, it is recommended to use an external charger to charge the batteries. Please feel free to browse through our selection of Battery Chargers: https://www.elementvape.com/chargers
- Always pay attention when batteries are being charged. Do not leave them unattended to avoid overcharging your battery. This can cause deterioration of battery life over time.
- Avoid extreme temperatures. High temperatures will strain your batteries, which can cause them to vent. Cold temperatures can take a toll on battery capacity.
- Do not charge your device/batteries on flammable surfaces. Avoid charging on carpets, pillows, wood, or other flammable surfaces.
- When using multiple batteries in a device, please be sure to use married batteries, ex., always use them in pairs. Do not mix and match batteries. Using different batteries can cause an imbalance in battery currents which may cause them to catch fire.
- Depending on how often the batteries are used, you may need to replace them after six months to a year.
