Nadya Ros, a mother from Connecticut, has returned to smoking cigarettes after a terrifying incident where her vape battery exploded and set her on fire. She had successfully avoided cigarettes for over a decade, switching to vaping as a nicotine substitute. The explosion occurred while she was shopping, engulfing her in flames and causing significant burns. Despite the severity of the incident, Nadya initially declined medical attention, and her husband treated her burns at home, though they became infected. Now recovered, she warns others about the dangers of low-quality vapes and lithium batteries, advocating for purchasing regulated and trusted products. She believes that returning to cigarettes is a safer alternative to the risk of another vape-related explosion.
