Default Battery advice.

Hi all,

It appears battery technology has moved on since I first used to race rc cars 20years ago using SCRC saddle/stick packs. From what I can see everyone prefers using Lipo batteries, but how safe are they? I have read so much about these batteries starting/causing fires. Now I know battery maintenance is down to common sense at the end of the day but some advise on where and how to store these batteries would be appreciated. Can these packs be stored in a garage with a lot of temperature changes sometimes hitting minus figures or do they have to be kept at room temp and if so where is the best place to keep them?
