With my hard packs I can plastidip, hotglue, superglue, whatever the little gap that the wires come out through and feel a bit secure about the individual cells.

I have had a softshell pack go flying from my e-revo on an extreme cartwheel landing thingy and it was gone. I have seen my friends zippy 5k hardshell fly 20 plus feet into the air out of his Savage Flux battery tray and take a pretty hard thud. He had me take it apart to check on it.I took it apart took a glance, and then superglued it back together. Pretty tough little suckers.

The added security doesn't bother me.
