Yep. I've been opening it up after every time I fire it, making sure the batteries aren't warm or swelled. I'll be less nervous after they've proven themselves in a few skirmishes.
The parallel configuration does increase the risk slightly. I figured I could keep the potential for explosion minimal by using the same brand/size cells. Plus I check the voltages with a multimeter before I plug them in.
Li-Po is the future!
