I took heed from the RC guys and bought a five buck charging bag. It's to put the battery pack in when it's charging to contain the explosion. When one occurs.
Keeping with the person you quoted and what you said about , "When one occurs". I think it would of been more accurate to say, "IF one occurs". "When", implies that something will inevitably occur. If that were true these things would be blowing up right and left and that is just not happening. With electronic devices sometimes things go wrong. The poorer the design or quality control the more the chance of something going wrong. That doesn't mean that something "WILL" go wrong. Sometimes things just go wrong, even with the best designs or quality control. I think it was best said by the person who came up with the phrase, "S*** Happens". Just ask the people at NASA. They know all about how bad things happen.
