Get in touch with Trakpower and ask them how to deal with the situation.

Put the battery somewhere safe until you can speak to Trakpower. If you have a safe charge pouch you should put it in that and away from anything flamable just to be on the safe side.

thats a bit extreme it wont explode......................
if its not swollen, pm me and ill explain how to recover it, if its swollen then dispose of it, slowly discharge it at a low amperage till its completly flat then bin it.

lipo will not expolde or catch fire if they are discharged below 6 volts at a low amperage, it will 99% just leave the pack useless, you can sometimes safley recover them
