There was nothing new there, I suggest to him he should take the word charging out of the title as it is wrong and could give people false sense of security.

I emailed a UK vendor today to see when he was getting the Cloupor Mini's back in stock, He replied saying he wasn't as he'd had 40% of his sales returned as faulty!!! He didn't go into detail about how many he'd sold or what the issues were but it has put me right off!!! I'll stick to my Mech's At least I know where I am with them!!!

I thought I saw someone post that a vendor told their mate that last night and was going to post here, but couldn't find it again.

mines working fine no issues

JoBo of UKV just posted that Barsardo has a warning and got a response from Cloupor link

Hi Phil,
firstly, we are so sorry to hear the melted issue . But , It's very very rare rate happening in mini device .As the state we collect until today , we shipped out more than 100 thousands out , only about 40-50pcs with melted issue...

that's OK then there are an order of magnitude more faulty ones than we were aware of, so far.

With regards to safety this vendor needs to put this information with detail out there now, 40% is a bold statement. We have 0% faulty from members here, well at the moment? 

[Ripshod]

I doubt the 40% claim too, unless customers are returning them before they burn out, assuming they're just ticking bombs.

I made a typo earlier, called it a Cloupor Mine - I'll stand by that until such time as Cloupor prove a link between the ones that have died and take suitable action to either recall the faulty batch or recall the whole lot.

Ripshod if you look at the last photo Basardo posted do you think it could be as simple as them using flammable glue and a hot component?

[Ripshod]

Where is it VapingBad, I'll take a look. I doubt it's the glue burning though, not that violently. The heat would make it run everywhere long before it burns but I see no sign of that.

decoy is there any noticable heat in yours? Vape like crazy then feel around that plastic cover.
