Many of you may have been in the hobby forever and many might be brand new to RC. I just wanted to take the time to stress the importance of safety in the storage of lipo batteries if you plan to use them. There are tons of options when it comes to batteries. All different sizes, shapes, discharge rates, etc. Make sure you purchase the right one for your needs. Some people have many trucks, cars, boats, planes, drones, etc. This requires many batteries. Makes sure to store them properly in a fireproof bag and/or container and try not to over burden the container with too many batteries. Below I will share a video of a few tests that were done to show the effects of different types of batteries being stored in different containers that end up catching fire. I am in no way an expert on the storage of lipos and suggest you do yourself a favor by researching your exact needs. Your home, children, irreplaceable items are not worth losing due to negligence. So if you plan on buying and running lipo batteries, please educate yourself. This post is in no way meant to scare people away from RC. I really enjoy this forum and would hate to see anything happen to any one of the people in or outside of this community. Thanks for your time. Stay safe and enjoy your RC's.
