That's a very old one. Been posted here before. Happened in October.

Oops I must have missed that one. Sorry guys.

I wonder, Hardware Issue or User Error

It either auto fired uncontrolled or battery overheated. I'm thinking the first one. My Nemi once autofired when I put it down and luckily realized just in time and it was so hot I could barely touch it. After that it never happened again. Probably user moronity (that's my own word for user error/stupidity...hehehe)

Im honest when i say accidents do happen but i mean really. I get angry at articles like that as cars, booze and even your razor is a bigger health risk than an ecig. The man is trying to scare people with articles like that. I think you have a bigger chance at being hit by lightning whilst riding a shark thru a sea of cobras before an ecig blows like a grenade. Yes safety is always an issue as i too have had an auto fire accident but that just made me more carefull. Check locking rings and if a battery looks dodge dont use it. It just the way.

Kudos to the post! Not negative @Riddle just the article.

I also had an autofire mishap once. Now I always make sure it's locked even between taking a small break.

unfortunately we will never know the truth. It could have been an eGo-C sporting a .2 ohm coil for all we know.
