cautionary tale Lipo fire

[Chris56]

Thanks for the "heads-up". I agree blame or cause shouldn't really be debated here, simply that it happened and the consequences can be pretty bad.

Having witnessed a LIPO fire a week ago, I know tat LIPO bags will only contain the fire for 5 seconds max - long enough to grab it and throw it out of harms way but not long enough to prevent considerable damage being done.

I often charge LIPOs at home and never leave the house when I do so. Due to recent events im considering using an aluminium box to charge them in (with the bag also) so that I can at least leave the room in confidence.
