    Lipo vs Li-Ion

    Nowhere in my post did I state that Polymers were unsafe. I only stated that Lithium Ions were safer, because they actually are. They have built in engineering controls that make them mathematically safer than a Lithium Polymer. I was very careful to not say that Polymers were unsafe. To...
