Leaving them fully charged is not ideal, puffing will be the result and they will be ruined. Is it that you have to wait hours for all your lipos to charge? Do you have a good charger, something that can charge your lipo's over 1C?
Like 8ight-E does, I charge mine up the night before. If in a rush, I'll do a 2 or 3C charge and in 1-2 hours, I'll have my batteries ready to go.
I think you'll find any poofing is more from temps being too high (ambient) where you store it vs a full charge. I've left packs charged in error for months w/o issue in the past. Now if you leave a pack peaked or not in a vehicle or anywhere temps soar it will poof. Often after a pack poof's some a charge will relax it funny enough,, but again mostly temp related. I don't advise that even if I have done it myself :P and of course there are different levels of poofing.. if the hard case pops off the pack I so big, you may not want to mess with it.. lol. The most common issue is if you don't have tight plugs and you have some shorting going on (arcing) it will also generate heat and often you get a poofed pack if the plugs don't de-solder themselves.
