This is my concern really, I don't have an issue with safety or what not, but a manufacturer states that your 'battery must be charged within a lipo sack', what constitutes a lipo sack, if it is sold by a shop as a 'lipo sack' but doesn't actually do what it should, which is to contain the fire........ you only got to go on Youtube to see lipo sacks being tested, yes, there are some very very good ones, but there are some which are useless.

All that is required is confirmation to be fair, and if we are made to use them, to know that what we are going to be using is actually 'fit for purpose', I don't think that is much to ask, is it?
