Good God! are Mondeo seats made out of that highly toxic expanded polyurethane stuff? good job she wasn't in the car when it happened, she might have been killed by the poisonous fumes.
I notice that the battery is intact but there is a lot of melted crap around the end, car adapter giving out too many mah's?
To answer captainbongo a 2.5 amp output is for tablets, passthroughs, satnavs etc. NOT for charging poor little ego type batteries. If you use it for charging don't leave it alone, it might throw a wobbler and fall out with you big style.

I once tried to light a cigarette with a hot air balloon burner - was I wrong?

Unfortunately vaping success is becoming its downfall. On the one hand you have vapers basically sticking two fingers up to the non smokers by vaping indoors which is never going to end well because non smokers far outweigh smokers/vapers. On the other hand due to the increase in popularity any tom dick and harry are buying e cig kits as cheap as possible to make a profit with no knowledge of the products at all, safety or otherwise. The manufacturers due to increase in demand are churning out low quality goods to feed supply which is never going to end well considering the chemistry of batteries. The reality is the batteries are the biggest concern and accidents will happen so the need to educate people on their use is a must. you can buy a cheap ego kit from the local petrol service station anytime but do you get advice about not leaving on charge overnight etc? no of course not. Electrical devices of all types burn down houses and cars every year from laptops to phones to hair straighteners. Customers need educating but weather they take the advice is another thing entirely, unfortunately
