I have been told that my lipos would explode if they got wet. Obviously people assume that the water will conduct, they will short and explode. My lipos got wet, I removed the heatshrink, cleaned them up and still use them.

I suspect these stories are put out there by the die-hard nimh users who are too cheap to move to lipos.

I have seen lipos submerged for several hours before we could dive down 20 feet and locate the boat. Dried 'em out, they work fine!

This explode if wet B.S. is just that..... B.S.

Tommy, if mum takes the kids down to the beach or hotel pool, guess what the kids see, lots of lassies in bikinis including mum. Now in Europe they would see the lassies with bikini bottoms only or no clothing

Incorrect. Actually a salt solution is no where near a direct short.

Actually salt water behaves exactly like a resistor does by creating a short between the pack leads. It may take a long or short time to discharge a pack depending on the salinity of the water. Distilled water is a non-conductor and will never discharge anything. But then we don't run in distilled water, much of the surface water in the US is filled with various ions which will help to dischage a submerged pack over time.

More info:

http://radiocontrol.wikia.com/wiki/Lithium_polymer If a battery's outer case is punctured, the lithium inside is highly volatile and will react violently with water. Such a pack may be disposed of by first discharging it with an automotive lamp, carefully slitting the outer skin of each cell with a razor blade or X-Acto knife and neutralizing it for several hours in saltwater. Since the chemicals are considered environmentally friendly, the pack may then be disposed of in the regular trash. Note that some cells might react to any discharge attempt with further bloating. Such cells should immediately be placed into a saltwater bath. It can take several days for a fully charged cell to deactivate in saltwater. If your cell is bloated, excercise caution when opening the outer foil. Using a needle on a stick is advised. Only puncture the outer skin, do not push the needle all the way through the cell. It is advised that this should be done with the cell already submerged in the saltwater bath.

Quite true my friend. While not being in charge of or responsible for the beach dress code..... I am charged with seeing the content of the forum conforms to a family oriented standard.

I take it I'm the only one who fails to notice the a fore mentioned garment is transparent.

[Diegoboy]

she may be wearing a bikini, but one that is slightly transparent as the one in your avatar is prohibited in virginia beach ( as is thongs) so please respect your moderator and take it down.
What is more important here? The short lived display of your risque avatar? or your free use of this site?

[sailr]

ya got better eyes than me or perhaps more of a prurient interest?

Virginia Beach - You have got to be kidding.

In Ontario Canada it is legal for a woman can go topples any time she wants,
Thongs - the smaller the better.

I see it too, AND LIKE IT!!! But I have to agree with SJFE that it is not appropriate for this forum.

Maybe you can email me the picture so I can do more research on the validity of the transparency of the garment.
OH YEAH!
