    Lipos Puffy

    I have nano tech 25-50c 6000mah its puffy and takes 2 hrs to charge and balance the battery. Is it safe to still use and charge? Dont want my boat blowing up in the middle of the lake. Just alittle worried about it. Thanks

    i wouldnt recommend it but I have also done it a few times as long as it wasnt too puffy,you may wanna check your setup though motor prop and esc wise.They will eventually let the magic smoke out in the middle of the lake lol...not fun

      Hi Allen,
      The battery is telling you something. You'd be wise to listen to it sir.

        Time to get rid of it. Really, why risk burning your house down.

          Time to give it a two week salt water bath before tossing into the garbage.
