Troubling reports show that e-cigarettes could suddenly burst into flames, causing disastrous injuries to a person’s legs, hands, or face.
This trendy alternative to normal cigarettes has been linked to severe burns and disfigurement caused by the device exploding suddenly with traumatizing effects to the user.
The FDA has investigated over 130 reports of fires and explosions due to the overheating of e-cigarettes in the United States between 2009 and 2016.
Victims of exploding e-cigarettes report the following dramatic results:
E-cigarettes were introduced to the American market in 2007, and ever since then the Food and Drug Administration has been putting progressive safety measures in place to protect users of these popular handheld electronic vaping devices.
Unfortunately, it has been nearly impossible to control the manufacturing of the e-cigarettes’ lithium-ion batteries. Many are produced overseas and are manufactured with defective battery casings.
Reports show that many of these e-cigarette batteries have a poor design and are constructed out of low-quality materials. Studies indicate that nearly all cases of exploding e-cigarettes are due to a battery malfunction.
While some of the blame falls primarily on the Chinese manufacturers of the batteries, a larger part of the blame rests with the distributors and retailers of the e-cigarettes for failure to warn consumers about the potentially devastating explosive nature of their products.

E-cigarettes are a relatively new device that vaporizes liquids composed of nicotine and flavorings. The battery-charged device heats this liquid into a breathable vapor.
The heating action is powered by lithium-ion batteries. The batteries are used for their ability to store and release considerable energy without taking up much space. An explosion can occur when the lithium-ion battery overheats while charging or heating the “e-liquid” into vapor.
The battery can then explode suddenly, bursting into flames and spilling toxic battery acid onto victims and their property.
Disturbing images show the victims of the dangerously malfunctioning e-cigarettes with disfigured faces and legs, heavy scarring, and home walls charred by these explosions.
