| Maximum safe number of LIPOs in a bag?
I have acquired a few LIPOs recently. All are 3-cell ranging in size from 800mah to 1300mah. All are in almost new condition with no problems. All are balanced charged every time. Any idea on the safe number of LIPOs to keep/store in a LIPO safe bag? The bag is new as well and is about 8.5"X11" in size. I realize that if one goes they are all likely to go...but they are well taken care of at all times. I just want to make sure they aren't going to blow if there are too many of them together.

Traditionally the lipo bag is only meant for 1 lipo during charging. It is recommended to store lipos in a metal container, added sand helps as well. I prefer a steel ammo crate. |

Good to know! I really don't think I will be carrying them around in a metal container though...I doubt many people actually do?? Thanks for the info! I am glad I don't charge them in the lipo bag with the others.

I just throw them all in there while I am transporting them and take them out when I charge one in the bag.

I only use the metal container at home, when I travel I toss them into the lipo bag. Lipos use to be feared by many, but when handled normally they are fine. I do know certain insurance companies have strict guidelines on storing lipos in case of an accident. I've heard of stories where the insurance won't pay a claim if they are not stored properly. |

I have mine stored in a ammo container inside the lipo bag. When charging they all come out, stacked in the container and the one charging goes in the lipo bag.
