Tragedy Avoided In E-Cigarette Explosion As E-Cig Explosion Lawsuit Filings Increase

June 07, 2016 – – LipsigLawyers.com outlines details of an e-cigarette explosion that occurred when a woman from Atlanta’s Grant Park district was charging her device. News reports of e-cigarette explosions and related incidents continue to grow and raise concerns about these devices.

Plugged into the Grant Park woman’s computer in her living room and charging from a USB port, the electronic cigarette exploded without warning. The woman described flames projecting “across my living room,” along with a loud explosion, to a reporter from WSB-TV, based in Atlanta, which ran a story on her experience. She had bought a new e-cigarette to help improve her health and had gotten a very different and scary outcome. It could have been worse since it is not uncommon for people to charge devices unattended. As she noted, her presence in the room — and her presence of mind — were what saved her home, and her dogs and cats, from a likely uncontrolled and disastrous fire while she was away.

A retired firefighter made the news some time ago after experiencing a similar fright. He, too, was charging his e-cigarette from his computer’s USB port and experienced a sudden explosion from the device putting his home at risk for serious damage. When disconnected, the electronic cigarettes can still present a risk as people have reported e-cigarettes suddenly exploding in their pockets, resulting in severe burns to both the users and those in the vicinity of the devices.
