That is very sad news PO1 William "Chip" Nagel that Tallmadge D'Elia "suffered burns over 80% of his body in a fire on May 5, 2018 caused by the exploding e-cigarette, according to forensic officials.
The 38-year-old's body was discovered by firefighters in the fiery bedroom of his family home in the beach resort of St Petersburg, Florida.
It is believed to be the first US death from a vape pen explosion."

Lot of local news coverage on this. Apparently there are all sorts of issues with batteries and mismatching batteries and devices.
