I've got to where every time I get an item with a Li-ion battery in it, the first thing I do is take the battery out & put it in the back of my pickup & take it to the Batteries Plus when I happen to go past there.

Perhaps I'm just being paranoid, but the possibility of a fire, coupled with the hoops you have to jump through to safely store & ship them... just not worth the 80 cents a pound.



They aren't stored in my garage any more though, ever since I watched a couple of youtube videos on them! Not that I'd ever intentionally stab one with a knife, but what if something fell on one? Just not worth the risk of having this happen inside my house.
