I agree completely about the situation re: lipo sacks for charging, when nimih's which seem to like exploding have never been subjected to such a "safety measure".

I just happen to think name calling in such a manner of those who make the rules is not needed.

I think anyone can agree that if you mistreat either form of cell then bad things will happen, personally i see no need for a pouch but others do and those are the rules. I dont think it has been stipulated by the brca that a pouch must be used, i may be wrong, i think this is just a club/venue rule right now.

ah so its not an efra or brca ruling then? oh i thought it was a governing body ruling,my bad.

i dont see anything wrong with charging in a sack at all if it helps with safety should something go wrong,but lets be consistent and have nimh in a chargin box or something similair..preferably carbon fibre with tinfoil lining

hmmm some interesting posts. My concern is that the EB advise but don't tell you to charge in a pouch, now clubs take it literally, so people are forced to used pouches. But there is no set standard for the pouches, and nothing to actually say, that they have been tested and would withstand a lipo going tits up. I appreciate in the event of a cell failure, it can reduce the damage to person or property too. But without a test procedure or them being constructed to guidelines, you can have one person with a pouch that is brilliant, and next to him, someone using a pouch made out of substandard material. So it then makes the procedure pointless.

And Like Dave points out, you open the can of worms when you allow other cells to be charged without ANY safety precautions at all.
