Lipo sacks

[BrianG]

I don't think it matters what you use to charge lipos in as long as the following guidlines are met:

> Container should absorb a flame up, not contain it. There should be breathing holes to vent the pressure.

> Container is non-conductive. If the wires happen to touch a metal object at the same time, it could CAUSE a problem. This may be true if there are holes drilled and the wire insulation chafes.

> Container should be able to dissipate enough heat, or insulate the heat, in a flame up to not catch fire to whatever it is sitting on.

Brian always so rational..lets hear the good stuff... If you toss them in snow it will cause so much hydrogen (well if you lean over it and intentionally inhale lol) you will die




I read this whole site before playing with lipos as I though I would die, from rumors, we are all safe as doves in a roof top cage http://www.batteryuniversity.com/ ... id also hit up some airplane sites those old dudes been flying for 20 years before the had the name lipo know whats up


neil and shaun can laugh about this but they both made me think id catch on fire....great mates

Lol, just common sense really. People seem to get so hung up on a certain brand or idea that they don't step back and ask themselves what exactly they are looking for. A little logic and common sense goes a long way - too bad they're in short supply.

As for transportation, the same "guidelines" apply. Stuffing all your lipos in one or two sacks (or one ammo box) works, but if one happens to flame up, there go the other ones too. But, having multiple sacks gets a bit expensive for what you get.
