If you are in the habit of using e-cigarettes, make sure you take enough precautions to stop them from overheating or going up in flames.
The reminder comes after a Dubai expat suffered extensive burns from a device that exploded in his pocket.
Graham Tooby told ARN News that the lithium-ion battery inside the vape blew up all of a sudden.
He's been in and out of hospital since the incident on New Year's Eve but says it could have been much worse.
His wife Kate told ARN News that it's been a harrowing experience for the family and they are still coming to terms with it.
Graham is now calling for more awareness around the use of the product as he doesn't think people are aware of the dangers.
He says the exploded device was just six months old and of good quality.
