Let us address some myths regarding lipos:
1. Lipos WILL explode and are very dangerous to use
2. Lipos are too powerful for anything but a heavily upgraded airsoft gun.
3. Lipos require a lot of babying
Yes, lipos CAN (not will) explode if you push them out of spec. The same can be said about NiCad and NiMH batteries too! Granted, the later two don’t often fireball, they can spit out all kinds of nasties that will burn you and possibly catch fire in addition to spewing shrapnel upon failure

1. Not a myth. If treated improperly, they will explode. The Lithium Polymer chemistry is a much less stable chemistry than Li-Co, Li-Mn, or even Ni-MH chemistries. Even when treated right, they can burst, due to some flaw in the manufacturing.
