The dangers of the lithium battery

Everybody know of the battery lithium dangers. But information never hurts. These weekend our friend Pengo almost put fire in the bedroom, lucky came in time for extinguish fire, extinguish with your shirt that turned floor cloth. After the "expertise" we found the charger set in 4S(14,8v), but the battery were 3S(11,1v). Was less 15min of charge for all damage. The items burned were next the only one battery in charger, the other battery, charger, helmet, car(DBX), all of were turn in burned, the alcohol saved. Some photos:

That's why you supposed to charge lithiums, or any batts, in a fire-resistant container (i.e. ceramic, glass, etc) with a lid.

Lesson learned.

And what sh!tty charger were you using that didn't even have cell sensing?

I'd re-name this one "the dangers of dumb-ass cheapskate room-mates"

^^^^ To connect a lipo to ANY charger on that does not connect to the balance plugs and do true individual cell checking is inviting disaster, no matter how much it costs. Honestly, I don't know how they can even sell that junk without getting sued to h#ll.
