Here, we will address issues related to security to avoid unpleasant surprises.
No economy in the choice of batteries
Probably the most important tip, don’t be stingy and be very vigilant where you buy your battery, counterfeits are unfortunately very widespread. Prefer recognized shops and brands, avoid dubious sites, and very attractive prices, we are talking above all about security, so bet a minimum. In addition, with a few precautions and a minimum of care, the cost of your battery will be quickly amortized. We don’t invest in second-hand batteries either, not knowing how they were treated before. I would recommend the Sony VTC6.
How to carry a battery
– The batteries must be transported in a suitable and insulating box
– Do not leave your batteries lying around at the bottom of the bag with the keys and any yellow parts lying around there which could cause short circuits
– Do not discharge your battery before charging it again
You can get protection at very affordable prices. There are airtight cases and silicone protective cases, which will allow you to protect your batteries in your pocket for example.
 Consider giving your battery a second life when it is damaged, it can cause short circuits in the long term. Changing the Wrap is also a great technique to differentiate your batteries. We advise you, Cute characters, Spider-Man…. So you will find your way more easily between those loaded and those to be loaded!
Stereotypes? The electronic cigarette can explode! Fake and fake!
Know first of all that it is the battery that explodes. The term explosion is not adequate, we speak of degassing. The battery releases a jet of burning material that can cause burns. So be careful of the degassing holes, some counterfeits, for example, do not have vents, which are nevertheless necessary for your safety.
