My wife got me two of those batteries for christmas. They were AWSOME! Until both had cells that blew up. She got them from Tower Hobbies, they are replacing both. Tower Hobbies were great in replacing them with no questions asked. I am trying a new method of using the LiPos. I am charging them at 600 mA (yeah it takes longer) and I hear it will give even more flight time. I was getting about 8 minutes before. Other people who charge at lower amperage get about 15 minutes.

Watch out for that top cell bursting. If lithium hits oxygen (the air) it will catch fire!

Let me know how it goes, I am very interested in knowing.
