Scary . Luckily , nobody was gravely injured in the incident .
Like most consumer gadget , e - butt use batteries with lithium - ion alchemy . It ’s well documented that li - ion batteriesare prone to explode . This is n’t one of the usual danger which we think of inthe current debateover e - cigarettes , but maybe it should be .
