i wasnt meaning to go into the math, just off the top of my head i figured a lipo is nearly a dead short...and an electrical setup will draw unlimited amps if avaliable....but for how long!?
(eg, 300 sized brushed motor that has locked up....it's gonna draw as many watts of power it can to try and get going again, hence producing unlimited HP....but for less than a nanosecond!!)
the batt prolly only gave it about 20 odd amps but a lipo is gonna seem like somewhat of a dead short.
and no, a power supply wont work either because it draws way too many amps for a 10A supply to keep up (did that with another lipo).
and the rest of the big epic post you made needs to be put somewhere safe because it is great info...(even know i know most of it) and can be used against the noob forces around the world
lipo fires are old now....all my dead lipo's go in the wood heater now
