It is worthwhile mentioning that LiPos don't just explode like that when being recharged or physically abused. Exceeding the discharge rate of the pack (ie. dropping in a heavier spring thus causing the motor to draw more current) can also cause it to blow. If you are aware of the risks then fine, but I really dislike seeing such casual and dismissive attitudes towards this battery chemistry.
