Just to be safe, I charge my LiFe's in my models... perhaps that isn't really safe at all... Mind you, they are usually charged at .5 amps no matter how big they are. I charge my 2200 LiPo's at 1 amp.
Not long ago I retired a few dead and dying LiPos by attaching a nail to a stick and driving it in to the sides. Really exciting with lots of smoke drifting through my wife's freshly washed clothing on the line. The boys loved it. They quickly raided the shed for more LiPos. They were very disappointed when I said that they were still good ones. "You can always buy some more Dad!" they said hopefully.
The most spectacular retirement of a flattery was when Kennyglide retired one out on the polocrosse practice field a few years ago. Very spectacular. He even sacrificed a good foamy model doing it for us!
Thanks Kennyglide.

Everyone knows that REAL ENGINES are used by REAL men. Eklectic motors are best left for use in toothbrushes and other unnecessary things.
