Very strange. Has anyone else seen this? I assume it is temp related.
Not sure what.the max.temps.are but I left.my gear in my truck.for.the day and when I pulled my packs out sunday I lost a reedy 5000 2s and to my suprise my friends 4s thunder power did.the same thing. Swelled on one.end and popped the cases. Strange we just attributed it to being left in the truck all day its 100 plus here in Louisiana so I regularly see 140 in my truck.when I.get in after work. I learned my lesson keep them as.cool as possible
