Was just out running my truggy on 2x 3s 4000mah zippy flight max lipos..
geared 13/52, truggy diff gears and the MMM 2200 combo.
All was well- temps the pass down my street before the eruption were 121 on motor, 101 on esc and 94 on the packs- not over drawing them in any way they are pretty decent packs
Then all of the sudden I hear hissing... thats odd, I bring the truck in and as soon as the truck stops one of the packs exploded- one of the cells completely blew apart. Now my entire truck is engulfed in flames. then I ripped both packs out of the truck and threw the flaming one to the side of the street.
Then the second cell blew- so trying to snuff the fire i buried the pack in much which extinguished the fire but now it was smokking like crazy really musty bright white smoke.. Chemistry has taught me alot- like lithium and water dont go well together so i ran inside and got the dry agent fire exitinguister and put the pack to rest... The other pack is perfectly fine- i mean pristine condition. cells were all at 3.81 when i brought them in, no heat in the packs. Luckily my Rx and MMM were all fine.
Here are the carnage pics
