    I sent an email as well and asked a couple questions. Very quick response.

    Q: What is the size of the box? How many lipo's were tested at once?

    A: we have tested the prototype with two 6S 5000mAh packs. On the production BAT-SAFE the flame arrestor will be twice as thick as on the prototype, we think that
    the double amount of lithium battery will be no issue. However, we will proof this through testing.

    The internal box is 9.5x6.5x4 inches. The external dimensions are 12x9x7 inches.

      Yes it is more. If you look a little closer it's also going to filter out some of the horror that spews forth. Not like clean mountain air. You still don't want to breath that crap but at least you wont be scraping the yuck off everything you own. MSRP looks like it will be in the $50 range. That's not a ton of dough. If you pledge up front for them you can get one for less.

      I pledged for three of them. I'll make a station with a charger out of each one.

      Lets help this guy get over the top so he can get started. If he doesn't get enough dough we're not charged a thing. Think we have two more weeks.

              This product has tons of "sales material" all over youtube, etc. to convert potential customers. That's for sure.

              Like this... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e3qGfocIOgM

              "Don't want your Mercedes SL 55 along with all your favorite boats/planes/etc going up in flames? THEN BUY BAT SAFE NOW!"

              The fact that it takes a crowd funded guy to come up with a safety storage device for lipos is pretty sad given the funding of most hobby shops and manufacturers-- the best they can come up with is a cheap bag that doesn't appear to work.

                            The first batch shipped on Nov.9 and were projected to take 28 days to get across the pond.

                            I couldn't figure out what number I was though. I'm in for 3 of them.

                                Terry if you log onto KickStarter look on the BatSafe campaign page look for a View Pledge button.
                                At the bottom of the pledge page it will show your number. But people in front of us could have ordered more than one so the backer number is kind of meaningless.
