Yeah, obviously puncture will do it too
forgot to mention that one Mark
I do like the other comment from earlier on in the thread though...
"Does this mean all race control, racers and any other laptops on site, need to be kept in a LiPo sack too"
Why didn't we have to charge the old batteries in a Bomb proof bag, because when they went pop, they really did go POP!! It was like fireing a shotgun, and one of those could have taken your head off!!
The most dangerous thing about LiPo is the fumes, My brother put a drive pin through his lipo while in his car...It didn't "Explode" and it didn't give off a ball of flames! ... It simply smoked alot. We could still get the battery out of the car quite easily with common sense and to a safer place of track where we could put sand on the battery and let it cool down.
