Default RE: Taking the plunge

I was wondering if any has seen one of these lipo's explode thats my worry as the only explotion ive seen was from a satilite battery mafg. employee that had a piece of lithim 1/2 the size of a base ball he droped it in abour 3/4 of a galon of water and told us to run like hell well he was right it showered a 300ft radius with white hot material that if you steped on it it would burn up through your shoe and it sent a mushroom cloud up over 100 feet granted the reaction he got was mostly due to the lithium decomposing the water into hydrogen and oxygen. That experiance sure has me woundering what im about to put into my new $2500 pride and joy.
