The reason these have gained popularity is because of the direct connection, which allows for better power transfer and a harder, faster hit. Hybrid mods would be a great place for the vaping industry to start.Ī hybrid top-cap means that the vaping atomizer is directly connected to the battery. So basically we just want to stay way from a venting battery all together. These battery failures would be way more devastating if the device in use did not offer proper venting holes. The release of pressure occurs by releasing dangerous chemicals and sparks from the vent holes right under the positive side of the battery. While 18650 batteries rarely explode with huge force, they are more likely to vent, which is a release of pressure.



So why is this an issue? Well, honestly, making this mistake can cause the battery to vent or possibly explode. The accident occurred because the car never alerted the driver that they were heading towards oncoming traffic." It would be completely absurd! Well, the same is true for vaping accidents, and one of the most common accidents is caused by a vaper using a hybrid mod with an atomizer (tank, RTA, or RDA) with a non protruding positive pin. Could you imagine if the news covered someone getting into a car accident the same way they did vaping accidents? It would go something like this: “27-year old male/female crashes car into oncoming traffic. The majority of the time when something goes wrong with a vaping device it is because the user has done something improperly. In the news we have been hearing some scary stories of how people's mechanical vaporizers are “exploding." The mainstream news has such a way of portraying vaping as dangerous, but their research into the story is largely irrelevant to the actual cause of something like this happening.
