We have that kind of turn out nearly every Sunday all year long, sun, rain, snow, we run in it all.
The Lipo probably was damaged, he (not me) plugged it in and it immediately started to swell and get hot....he started yelling and one of the guys closer to him grabbed the truck, jerked the battery out and gave it a toss....it took another 4-5 minutes before the battery went terminal....kinda spooky considering we all run them but that is the only one I have seen go that way in over 5 years
