Shorted out my 24s2p Lipo back - 06.07.2012, 03:42 PM

I got second degree burns on my hands last nite, plugging in my 24s2p battery pack into my bike. My whole hand was black and burned like a mother.... I was multitasking and didn't pay enough attention....so there went a dead short with a couple of hundred amps thru the EC5 connectors. My buddy and I figured that it must of been over 500A for my whole hand to be covered in black dust. There was small fire too. The pain lasted a good 4 hours straight and calmed down enough for me to go too sleep.

All the packs measured fine and need cleaning and some new heat shrink.
