I'm putting the wheels in motion to organise a controlled destruction test of the various options we have for lipo containment whilst charging.
May take a bit to get responses from the distributors etc but i'm aiming at a completely unbiased independant experiment.
I feel that we just don't know enough about the different types/options to be recommending and relying on them in case of incident, a £2.50 import special may contain a fire for 20 seconds longer than a £15 branded shiny sack for all we know or vice versa.
20 seconds longer is a better chance to get everyone the hell away from it!
If any fellow oOplers, manufacturers/distributors/shops/BRCA Officials are reading this and wish to be involved then feel free to contact me.
This topic crops up on here every few months and there have been incidents that sparked the topic each time, no point sitting round talking or expecting BRCA organisers to do something extra on top of their busy workload as volunteers... i'm a BRCA member as we all are so will be doing this to help any future decision making on safety and hopefully will bring more light on subject to help us all understand more.
