While the full extent of the harm posed by using e-cigarettes is still being debated, the devices themselves are already causing severe injuries. As reported in a recent article:

Earlier last year, a young man from Albany, New York, was partaking of “vape” with his electronic cigarette when the device exploded in his mouth, taking out several of his teeth, ripping a hole in his tongue, and causing severe burns on his hands.
