Always use a fire resistant LiPo safety bag, metal ammo box, or other fire resistant container when you are charging, discharging, or storing your LiPo batteries. While LiPo fires are rare, they can happen incredibly quickly and can do a lot of damage. All it takes is an internal short circuit to set the battery off. There is no way to predict when it will happen. It does tend to happen more often when batteries are fully charged, being overcharged, or while being discharged, but it can happen to any LiPo at any time.
Safely store and protect your SwiftPaws batteries in this fiberglass fabric, fire & water-resistant bag. Place battery inside bag and close the flap. Note the slit on the side near the flap for the charging wire/plug to extend outside the bag for attaching to the charger. (indicated by the arrow) there is a slit on either side of the bag.
Never fill the container to capacity with your batteries, always follow manufacturer recommendations on LiPo bags for how many mAh’s it can safely contain.
CAUTION: The battery should always be allowed to come to room-temperature before charging. Charging a hot or cold battery might delay charging or damage the battery. For best results, charge the battery at temperatures between 50º and 80ºF (10º-30ºC).
