RE: switching to lipos???
FORGETLipos, go with LIFEPO4 packs!!!!!
Lipos are dangerous!!!!!!!!! Do you know just how MANY perople have had their HOMES, sheds, garages, automobiles, and RC vehicles BURN TO THE GROUND because of Lipo batteries VIOLENTLY ERRUPTING INTO HUGE AND SUDDEN BALLS OF FIRE?? Seriously!!
Research this online and you will see that despite what the "Lipo battery engineers" ( /SARCASM EXTREME) here on this forum all try to say in desperation to keep this quiet and hidden, they are DANGEROUS.
How can people here with kids even let these fire-bombs be in their home or garages, autos, sheds, etc with their children around it or sleeping in a home with Lipo packs in them?? Clearly irresponsible parents here for sure...
Shame on you.
SHAME!!!

Adam, do you have a laptop? How about a cell phone?
You are ignorant. LifePO4 offers no advantage over LiPo.
ThunderbirdJunkie will lol heartily if the lead-acid battery in your real car catches fire.

Eh TBJ, what will it be sir??
AdamW likes to give spankings so admit that you have no clue or suffer defeat.
In addition, you have a problem reading as NOWHERE did I type that LIFEPO has advantages over Lipo other than my suggestion of Lipos being dangerous such as erupting into HUGE balls of flames like fire-bombs burnig peoples homes to the ground.
Learn to read, and know your facts before posting nonsense.
Geeze!!

You had NO CLUE that there are CLEAR and HUGE differances in the two battery types, eh? I dont need elementary Wiki to explain this to you as you didnt even KNOW a KINDERGARTEN-level differance between Laptop batteries and RC batteries!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BWAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.
ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RE: switching to lipos???
Actually, you don't know how similar they are, obviously. Li-Ion is largely the same and does the same things when overcharged/overdischarged/overheated.
So, whatever floats your boat, homeboy. Go ahead and copy/paste from Wikipedia. Do it.

Hopefully the next person whose home burns to the ground gets a GOOD LAWYER and finds a way to SUE YOUR REAR for spewing this irresponsible misinfo here about this dangerous FIRE-BOMB of a battery technology all because you want to have them in your little toy trucks.
IP addresses can be retreived, with the ISP forced to reveal the identity of people posting posts who defend and recommend dangerous FIRE-BOMBS to others ESPECIALLY children...
You are an irresponsible adult child...

RE: switching to lipos???
Dude, quit trolling and startin ish with people. TBJ speaks the truth, LiPo is actually pretty safe if you know what you are doing and do research on how to do it. They are NOT idiot-proof, but to screw something up so simple as a battery, it speaks little of your intelligence. LiPo is the same battery found in laptops, cell phones, etc etc. What I would like to know, Adam, is why youve got it so bad for TBJ. Im starting to notice how much you follow him around and single him out. TBJ Give him a P.O. box so he can send you flowers and chocolates and get it out of his system.....
And the rest of you sticking up for the "new" OP, youre right. Maybe if we convinced them to take down that bothersome search bar we would have more server room and bandwidth for all the "What this" and "What that" and so-on, and so-on, and so-on. God knows three a day is never enough

RE: switching to lipos???
You have to be an idiot to screw up lipos. Hell last night I shorted one out because I had a migraine and wasn't paying attention. A good 3 seconds. Used it 10 minutes later. I mean The only way I have ever been able to ruin a lipo (I own over 40), is by puncturing it.
Adam W must be stuck in the year 2002 [&:]
With today's chargers and such, it is very difficult to have one blow due to user error. Almost all chargers are plug and play right now.
I am more scared of the NiMH shrapnel than lipo fires TBH

RE: switching to lipos???
Well Himmler....seems I aint the only one to get passionate on this thread......hmmmmmm........I agree with you and TBJ......I balanceddischarged my 7.4 5000 40cIntergy last night ...without any issues.....then I recharged them at 1c....THE PACK NEVER GOT HOT! I tested it today on my Tamyia Frog....and grins a giggles once again on this great technology! ...MY DISCLAIMER......YOU SHOULD ALWAYS BALANCE AND WATCH THE PACKS WHILE CHARGING!

RE: switching to lipos???
YO Adam.......CHILL!!!!!.....I was told to earlier in the thread now I am telling you. It aint that serious and like TBJ and Himmler said.......Lipo tech has been here for quite some time and it is in the hands of the owner to take responsability and be safe. THEY REALLY ARE NOT THAT DANGEROUS IF YOU CHARGE AND WATCH THEM CORRECTLY!

RE: switching to lipos???
don't let this scare you away from lipo, these arguments happen every now and then by people who don't even own lipos and try scaring people from them. And as far of i've seen, the lipo supporters always win

RE: switching to lipos???
i thought this might be of interest (or not).
i have been researching switching to lipos for some time now, more so with the way lipo prices have seemingly been dropping.
i wasnt even on this site, but at my google home page and searched "switching to lipos" and got this:
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=switching+to+lipos
the bickering about forum etiquette to lipo info ratio is 3 to 1.
sometimes searching is the way to go, but not always. it largely depends on whos lurking at the time.
to those that took the time to post actual lipo info,,,, thankyou.
