Fire Department Aids Tulsa Man After E-Cigarette Explosion, E-Cig Explosion Lawsuit Cases Likely To Follow

June 10, 2016 – – LipsigLawyers.com reports on the growing number of electronic cigarette explosion reports and the number of injuries connected to them. An Oklahoma TV station ran a report about a local Tulsa man who purchased an e-cigarette at a Camoland store, interested in cutting down his cigarette use and saving money. He planned on going from about six dollars a pack for his smokes, to “two or three dollars” for a container of e-cigarette fluid, or “juice.” The Tulsa station, NewsOn6.com, reported that while he was washing dishes, he noticed a flash in the distance as his e-cigarette exploded. Plugged into his laptop USB port for charging, the device emitted flames which ignited the laptop, a nearby lamp, and even his shades – “everything was on fire,” he said. The resulting damage to his home was considerable, but he was fortunate that he was not using the electronic cigarette when it exploded as several other victims have been.

In North Carolina, a man reported experiencing an e-cigarette explosion while he was using his device. Reported in the news, he said that the device was near his face when it exploded, and in addition to causing several physical injuries, it temporarily blinded him. E-cigarettes use a flammable liquid often referred to as “juice” for operation. During several reported explosions this liquid is projected out of the device frequently spreading flames. This man was hit with the hot liquid and reported that the explosion felt like hot oil was splashing his face.

Attorney Marc Freund of Lipsig, Shapey, Manus & Moverman is looking to assist victims of e-cigarette explosions to assist them in exploring their legal options. He is currently offering complimentary consultations to affected parties and states that some individuals may be entitled to financial compensation.
