LIPO bag

[nwmlarge]

I would like to get a LIPO bag for charging/storing my batteries.

I don't actually have LIPO's but hopefully the bags don't discriminate.

Can anyone recommend some please?

Does no one use charging bags?

Do you use something else?

I've been using LiPo batteries for a few years now and have never bothered with a LiPo bag. In all the races I've been in, I think I've seen maybe TWO people using LiPo bags (however, there are buckets of sand and fire extinguishers nearby).

Initially I was pretty alarmed by the horror stories of LiPo combustion but I've learned that if you just practice common sense and care when charging and discharging the batteries... there's not a whole lot to fear. This is not to say that LiPos NEVER combust, just that it seems to be a far rarer event than Google might have you believe.

I typically just leave the batteries in my cars for charging and storing. Pretty convenient, and they're protected from bumping into other things.

I don't use bags either. I would have bought some, but I've got a large ammo box that fits all my batteries.

I store my lipo batteries in an old metal ammo box when not in use and use a large lipo bag anytime I charge them.

Ammo box sounds cool, not so easy to come by in the UK, I do have an old biscuit tin so that will do for now.

What brand of LIPO bags do you use Woodie?

If needed I do have a couple of ammo boxes.
But when I was/still am, researching Lipo's, I was looking into a bag to store them in.

This is what I was looking at, $12.99 on Amazon. I would take Fireproof and explosion proof with a grain of salt.
You can melt anything if you set your mind to it. LOL
