So, I've been using this battery (18650 Samsung INR18650-25R 2500mAh High Discharge Flat Top) with no problems for several months now. I've been using the infinite cartel clone mod for about a month with my kayfun lite v2+ and No problems with either, until today.
Single coil, 1.6 ohms, 28 gauge Kanthal, cotton wick
Using that build for the last couple days. It was going great today. Then when I got home, I thought I'd check the volts on the battery to see if it was time to swap it out for another. I took the kayfun off. Screwed in one of those in-line volt meters. Tried checking, got nothing. Extended the telescopic part of the contact, then tried again. The button was really hot all of the sudden. I quickly unscrewed the button and took the battery out. It was extremely hot. It even looked like the wrapper on the negative side melted a little bit. This all happened so fast, so I'm really confused as to what happened. The battery didn't even cool down at all after five minutes, so I tossed it.
A little later I threw the kayfun on my ohm meter, and noticed it was jumping around all over from 1 ohm to 3 ohm. It seemed to jump more when tilting the kayfun while screwed in to the ohm meter.
Any ideas what's going on?
