Lypo Lipo's

[Aflan]

Hello all,

I got an interesting mishap this weekend...
I was test driving a traxxas emaxx I have been restoring the last couple of months...I burned through my first set of batteries with no problems...The second set was much more interesting......
Both lipo's popped and started smoking...I got them out in time, so no damage was done to the traxxas emaxx...Butt the lipo's look like they will be a write off...

My questions is as follows: How the F*** could this happen and what to do with them?...They still hold a charge...

Thx for any insight, thoughts, tips and jokes in advance...

That's what happens when you use your batteries in low quality cars. You should have stick to Arrma.

It looks that they puff a little and the hard cover split down the middle. Time for disposal and buy new ones.
