Battery Safety

For your complete safety and security we must advise you of the following.

Electronic cigarettes use lithium-ion batteries which can be volatile if improperly used. If you purchase a battery through vapehound.co.uk it is your responsibility to take the following safety precautions:

General guidance and advice:

  • By using one of our batteries you accept and take full responsibility for the general and known risks associated with using lithium-ion batteries such as overheating and exploding which can cause fire, personal injury and property damage.
  • Make sure the user has enough knowledge of Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries in charging, discharging and assembly before use.
  • Ensure you have purchased the correct charger from Vape Hound (if it is not already included with the product you purchase) and do not use any questionable e-cigarette charger units purchased from other outlets and vendors or use any other method of charging such as computers, iPhone plugs, car chargers etc.
  • Always charge in/on a fire-proof surface and maintain a visual watch over your battery/ies whilst charging. Never leave the battery charging unsupervised.
  • Never continue to charge or use an e-cigarette device if you can feel the battery getting hot. If your battery becomes hot to the touch, or if it begins smelling, turn the device off immediately (if it is safe to do so) and let it cool down outside on a heat proof surface. The battery should then be disposed of safely.

Vapes Hound is not responsible for damage if there is any modification of the batteries/chargers in any form or shape (including pack making). We are not responsible for any damage caused by misuse or mishandling of Lithium-Ion batteries and chargers. We will not be held responsible or liable for any injury, damage, or defect, permanent or temporary that may be caused by the use of any batteries.

Further guidance and advice:

Devices with an integrated battery

  • Avoid leaving your device in extreme temperatures, whether hot or cold
  • Avoid leaving your device charging when you are not present or asleep
  • Be cautious if you have dropped your device or it has received any other damage
  • Turn off your device when not in use or being transported

Devices with external battery/ies:

  • Avoid leaving your device / batteries in extreme temperatures, whether hot or cold.

  • If charging via a cable, avoid leaving your device charging when you are not present or asleep.
  • Do not use batteries in poor condition, for example with any dents, a deteriorated battery wrap, or any other visible damage.
  • Replace old batteries when necessary – you will notice they take longer to charge and drain faster.
  • Never transport loose batteries in your pocket or bag etc – always use a cover to avoid possible contact with other objects.
  • Turn off your device when not in use or being transported
