It take a hell of alot more abuse when charging to blow up a NIMH cell than a lipo... just do a web search for rc NIMH fire...... and see threads do you see on the web ..? now do the same for lipo and you will be amazed at what you see burnt houses, cars, garages and more!!
Your just a fool if you don't respect lipo packs one day it will bite you in the you know what... how many guy's i read about like you guy's and then it happens then they don't do any foolish things anymore after the bad experiance.... why take the chance.... It's like i don't want cancer but i will smoke like a chain smoker that's what you guy's are doing...
Better safe than sorry.... are you under age living at how? if so how mad would a parent be if they found out the lipo pack burned there house and they did research and seen the way yous treated and stored them??? If i was a parent i would be pissed!
+1 im only 14, so if a lipo was to burn down the house, my parents would probably get rid of all my rc stuff. so thats why im going to take extra caution with lipos when i get them.
