Does anyone know of where I can find specs or even general guidelines regarding how much lipos vent during discharge?

Are you sure? I'm working on an waterproof enclosure for lipos and I'm trying to determine if the enclosure needs to be vented.
Thanks.IMPBA: 7-Time FE World Record Holder "Don't think outside the box. Rather, refuse to admit that the box exists in the first place!"

As far as I know vents are safeties in round cells like NiMH and Nicad. I don't think there are vents in Lipo. You should double check with the manufacturer.Steven Vaccaro

They are sealed packages. They don't vent. They might puff a little under high discharge, but ever are they open to the air anywhere unless they have failed. Then they usually like to let the extra gas out with a flame.

That was my understanding, that they were sealed. Any hole in them would lead to serious damage(fire/explosion)My prop hasn't been wet in a while.Comment

Thanks for the input guys. It looks like no bleeder valve, but I'll check with a few manufacturers to be sure.IMPBA: 7-Time FE World Record Holder "Don't think outside the box. Rather, refuse to admit that the box exists in the first place!"
