Hi there,
Think I left my Riva battery charging for too long and when I tried to vape afterward, the cartomiser started hissing (it's a kanger, they don't normally do that) and it got really hot. Have I done-gone-busted my battery?

you shouldnt be able to overcharge unless your charger is faulty... more than likely its your carto... if its getting too hot then maybe running a little dry ?

Gordy is right. The charger should cut off once the battery is fully charged.

Ah ok, I'll try it with another carto that has vaped fine on my other battery. Why do they recommend keeping batteries not in use in airtight containers?

It was on the instructions somewhere, but I must admit it just sits on my cabinet 'til I need it, whoops.
