Personally....

I have 20 lipos from different manufactureres.
  • I do not use a charging bag
  • I do not store my lipos in a metal container
  • I have had two Nimh fires caused from exploding cells.
  • I have had zero Lipo fires from exploding cells
  • I have had one lipo fire from shorting out on a steering post

I always balance charge my batteries and store them fully charged.

I may be wrong according to some people, but it suits me and I have few problems.
