That and I think lipo's have a tendancy to make people lazy, and they leave their packs in their cars and trucks while charging them since they only need one pack per vehicle. In hte last year I've watched two people catch their cars completely on fire, when a pack had a problem, and watched the car melt to the ground. And I heard about another guy that burned his Caddy's engine compartment out when he had his charger and pack hooked to his car battery. These things burn and spark and skyrocket like they're napalm and not just blow up like nimh's. Using the bag just develops good, safe, habits.
