LiPo Safe Bag

Batteries and Chargers Rechargeable Batteries

I was looking for LiPo safe bag at DD.

Ive found one: http://www.dinodirect.com/LiPo-Safe-Battery-Charging-Bag-MY-LBS-2-Silver.html?cur=USD

But I also found this video at YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEkewCjiDs0&feature=related

Does anyone have this bag from DD (I also think that bag from DX is the same as from DD)?

Is that bag in video same bag whitch is sold on DD or DX etc.?

I also looking for quality batteries.

Ive found this Soshine http://www.dinodirect.com/rechargeable-lithium-18650battery-2800mah.html because Ive heard here about TF Flames sold on DD so I hope that Soshine batteries arent faked as TF Flames.

Charger Im going to buy XTAR MP1 USB.

Before some time Ive bought my first XM-L light but Ive read all over the internet about that LiPol batteries explosions, so Im little scared. I want quality charger and batteries, that XTAR charger will be okay but batteries are very important.

Thanks

Regarding the LiPo safe bag - I think you'll be better off buying one of these: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=4134 , http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=4364 , with good reviews from people who use them frequently.

And the price difference isn't too big, shipping included.

I just bought one from eBay , http://www.ebay.com/itm/170655018438?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

Hasn't arrived yet but it's the same bag on DX by the looks of it.

Never liked the LiPo-bags, to tough velcro which makes it a bit of a hassle to use them.

After seeing this film you Youtube I'm using a cashbox instead:

Then again I've never had any problems with my batteries so I don't know how well it will hold up if any of them decides to explode on me, but based on this film I'm feeling safe.

Where do you get those?

Or do you work for British Fail?

Would LiPol really explode or catch fire? Does this happen frequently to people???

That must be a major thing to consider when using batts like these...another reason I like AA, just buy eneloops or 48 Costco AA for 12$ and forget it.

Search youtube for lipo fire.

They do indeed catch fire sometimes (actually spew flames!), especially if abused or over charged. Very good reason to be sure you buy a good charger & not ultrafire junk. Xtar is decent without being expensive.

They also vent lots of noxious gas.
