I have a Smok Vape Pen Plus that fires when sitting on the table! It has leaked juice around the firing button from the day I got it. I contacted he seller, they said I needed to tighten up the coil. Did that even using a vice grips. It still poured juice around the button. Needless to say, I am sure this has caused the misfiring.

Depending on where you live, some vape shops will recycle batteries (and I hope to holy goodness that they are doing so, not rewrapping them with some fancy house wrappers...) Radio shack will, some cellular places will take them, and so will places like Home Depot and Lowes, etc.

How strong are e-cigarette tanks?
E-cigarette tanks are pretty strong, but they aren't invincible. They are mostly made of glass, which means there is always a chance they could get broken or cracked. Most vapers use their e-cigarettes all day long, meaning the device journeys from car to the office and back home again. They might get shoved in a pocket or tossed on a desk. So it's no wonder that damage happens to the tank occasionally. If you start to experience leaks, hold your vape up to a light and examine the tank closely. The light will make it easier to see hairline cracks or chips in the edges that could be causing the leaks. If you see any signs of damage, order a replacement tank right away (and consider investing in a carrying case for your vape!).
