What a load of propaganda crap . I have had a boat blow to bits because of vented NIMH and I am not alone.
that was my point,yes lipos can catch fire but nimh explode,i have seen this happen and the damage they cause
years ago i had a car battery (lead acid) blow up in my face,can tell you know i will take lipos any day
not that i have seen a whole lot but every video i have seen shows the lipo connected to a charger still.
just goes to show how well people are misinformed especially with the title "worlds most dangerous batteries"
better not tell them most of there phone and laptop batteries are lithium
A NIMH cell will normally vent when exposed to very high temperatures commonly caused by exessive current draw thoughout the pack.
I am also lead to believe that a NIMH cell will vent when charged @ a high current, again with heat being the main cause.

we have a guy in the club whose boat blew up cause of vented Nimh, it sounded like a shotgun went off!
Was he running Brushed or BL
I ask as I believe Nimh cells vent Hydrogen gas during high loads and suspect that a Brushed motor had enough arc to ignire it.
If he was running BL then there are few, not none, ignition sources.
Just curious.
My Nimh are now in my big tug and crawler.
See it....find the photos.....sketch it it....build it........with wood
