Lipo bag

Rc13 like you said, when I charge my lipos I'm always nearby to monitor for heat and what the voltage per each cell is saying on the LED screen. One thing that I always do and is actually good for longevity of the cells is to keep them in storage mode (3.80v per cell).
I live in an apartment so imagine the extra anxiety I go thru instead of burning up just the garage. I may have to rethink all this as this is a good wake up call.

You said it.. "Anxiety" I have become very cautious because of the fire that I had. Anyone using lipos should always be concerned. If there was a product that would accommodate 100% safety for lipo battery storage, most of us would all buy it. I know I would... But there isn't anything like that. So, lipo users have come up with good solutions that work good for residential usage, but are not 100%. So, I will always look for more suggestions and better ways.

I have decided since my Premacon machines run on NIMH batteries I will run them in my rc4wd dozer too. No worries now
