              style="font-size:
              10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy">Hey guys wanted to
              let you know about an
              incident I had over the weekend that caused some high
              concern.  I flew
              four flights yesterday, then returned home.  I thought I
              would go back out
              later and fly three more, so I charged three more
              batteries.  The three
              batteries on was planning on using, were flown the
              previous day, and were not
              overly discharged.  I took my kids to the movies as my
              wife did not want
              to go, and that turned out to be the best thing for the
              family.  One of my
              2014 packs decided that it no longer wanted to live and
              decided to catch fire
              all by itself.  I have always thought that the best time
              for these to
              catch fire, would be during the charge cycle.  This
              incident happened
              almost an hour after charging the pack.  Keep in mind that
              after I charged
              the pack, there were immediately put into my flight box
              for storage until I got
              back from the movies.  After I took them off the charger,
              the batteries
              did not see warm in any way, cool to the touch.  I have
              had these
              batteries for two and as far as I can remember - they
              where not damaged in any
              way.  Due to my wifes' heroic action, the house did not
              catch on fire like
              my toolbox did.  She brought them out to the drive way
              water on them to
              kill the flames.  I have been pretty cavalier with packs,
              leaving them out
              once they are charged and not putting them in something
              safe for
              storage....those days are done.  If this can happen to a
              battery sitting
              with a stored charge, I will not longer leave my house or
              family
              unprotected.  <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

              that may not be the best thing for them either as the

              and they need to breathe.  In other words if you left them

              may be creating a bomb scenario.  What I did was - several
              years ago, I
              bought a metal ammo case.  I removed 3/4 of the rubber
