Comment on Man Used 80 Discarded Vape Batteries to Power an Electric Scooter Proving the Importance of E-Waste
db2@sopuli.xyz 9 months agoFunny, but the real problem is that they’re allowed to be marketed as “disposable” in the first place. I’m surprised there haven’t been more reports of “random” trash fires that were really from lithium batteries improperly disposed of.
The craziest thing is pretty much all of those “disposable” batteries are actually rechargeable, they just lack a circuit to do so.
This is why I hate disposables. There is a ton of waste around them between the plastic and circuitry and battery.
Granted, pre-filled atomizers are only marginally better, unless they start selling recreational vape juice and people start dripping pot. The convenience of a vaporizer just can’t be beat though. Near instant action and clothes don’t reek.

It’s a lot like “flushable wipes” and the fact that they should not be flushed and will clog your plumbing.
