Portable lipo bunker ( tested ! )

- This is my solution for a Lipo Bonker to avoid having a fire in my appartment in case of a problem.
I wanted something portable, that I can bring in my car, safe, without any flames and having the possibility to charge my batteries.
I tested it by catching on fire a 3S battery.
The box weight 27 pounds.

Great idea and a good job showing how you made your bunker and how you tested it. I'll be making mine just like yours.
Thanks for sharing and showing how it should be done. I've used steel casette for money and lipo pouches inside about 10years ago and it was always my concern, that in an extreme case with fire shooting off the battery, the temperature might get transferred through the steel and spread onto furniture or wooden/rubber floor or car interior. I also had some kind of fireproof 0,5cm thick fabric to put either under the pouches or under that cassette. But I was still concerned. This is super well made. Today a good idea would also be to buy a smoke/fire detector with sim card support and smartphone alert to be always next to or mounted on the lid of the cassette, so when we are away, it can let us know that something is going on.
i knew i was not the only one to do this!!! great video!!!
Genius! Should make a production model and sell this
Good project I’m gathering information from RUclips and started buying parts for ebike battery and my RC drone . Bought 21” Harbur freight metal tool box lining with 1/4” cement board . After batteries in box lying top bags of sand to smother fire if any . Also important to have vent hole so no pressure build up .
I want to see the face of a police officer stoping you with your car and checking that box..lol
Police came at my house once and I made sure to hide it first !
LOL
love the sand idea, seem to work pretty good in combination with the drywall separators since the paper in the adjecent slots did not catch fire
I bought some new lipos for my rc car and got a new 4-channel charger (Hota F6+) with storage mode so I can take better care of my batteries....all my old ones are puffed to like 150% their original thickness ;o]
I plan to order a metal box for storage (now I store in lipo bags alone) and one to covert to a dedicated charging box like you have where I can charge 8 batteries at once (both my rc cars use two 3s batteries that I charge as 6s to balance all 6 cells to same level)
Ottimo progetto, complimenti !
Salut p'tit frère du Québec ! Très bonne ton idée .
oh year, this is a very nice build integreated fire extinguishers
i love you :-)
Instead of sand I would use glass bubbles you can buy for lipos. They are said to melt on the burning lipos and seal them from air, quenching the flames. I’m freaked out by the same situation. Only have my apartment, no garage.
Any idea where to get glass bubbles in the US?
I don't know about glass bubbles. Maybe it won't work if you put then over like me. Maybe you need to put the battery in them.
Thanks for making this. It is super helpful.
I thought about a metal toolbox lined with sheetrock for ebike batteries. Haven't gotten to it yet.
I’m doing exactly this. I have 3ebike batteries. And a potential fire in my flat scares the living shit out of me.
great idea ... . I have some ideas too ...., but i dont do videos, and i thought about selling some devices , but i dont have the money to produce ...
Could we get together on this matter ?
Thank you for the invitation but I don't have time for this. Good luck ;)
Maybe I should build something out of fire bricks they don't burn
Tres bon!!
Amazing solusion, thanjs
Maybe, if you stretched a rubber membrane over the bottom of the tray and filled it with sand. Then when the rubber melts it will 'pop' like a balloon and release all the sand quickly.
First I think it will be complicated to have a plastic solid enough and able to pop. Secondly If the sand fall all at once everywhere it will put less sand on the battery on fire.
Bien joue, ceci la.
Hi, is there any alternative stuff to replace drywall? Its not available in my country. Also, I hv a suggestion, if u could attach the sandbag to the box lid, charging would be much easier
I just tried and the box is unbalance and fall back if I put weight in the lid. You could put sandbags at the bottom of the box to dissipate heat. If the sandbags on top melt well, maybe 3/4 inch wood planks could be use to isolate the batteries from each other. This also can be use for the bottom. You could use ceramic floor tiles, chlaks.. Note that I did not tested all those alternatives.
drywall not available? Dude, this material is in every country. He is referring to gypsum. It's on your wall and ceiling. Super cheap from the market.
or you can get a sheet of Hardie Backerboard, its like 6 mm cement sheet, its for tiling in bathrooms or fireplaces etc, fireproof for about an hour
salut ,c'est quoi l'epaisseur du gyproc ? entreposer dans le four ça fonctionne aussi mais c'est vrai quon peu pas les sortir dehors . faut juste pas oublier de les enlever !! quand on veu cuisiner 😂 .
Salut. C'est du gyproc standard. Je ne connais pas l'épaisseur.
@@TOUTest1merci je suis entrain den faire un😂 jai 4x 6s /16ah à storer plus quelque autre tes trou cest 1 pouce ? un gros sac de sable en plastique glad est mieu dapres ce que je vois a la fin de ton video
@@amachalaamachalpu9366 J'ai fait les trous assez grands pour que mes connecteurs passent. Pas mal 1po ou 7/8po . Le mieux est comme au début de la vidéo, avec des petits sacs. J'ai filmé les explications après l'avoir essayé ( mis le feux :) ). Je n'ai pas fait de tests avec les petits sacs, mais je crois que le sable va mieux couler ainsi. Le plateau ou se trouve les sacs, c'est mieux de faire un gros trou avec une grille comme j'ai fait plutôt que plusieurs petits trous pour faciliter l'écoullement.
if you are just putting them in a vacuum sealed bag it CANT GO WRONG (cuz fire wont burn if you have no oxygen )
or put the exaust pipe into a box with the batteries as CO2 is supposed to take out fire i think that what they said at my 10 minute fire training session to use co2 extinguishers
I think that lipos do not need external Oxygen to burn. Also, if the battery begin to burn it will melt the bag... Exhaust pipe of what ?
Have same for ebike battery but need to do more and put box outside . Batter will burn under water and makes own oxygen from is shown on other videos .
Many options and levels of security at cost $100 to $200
From what i know… Lipo batteries. Self sustaining fire. They dont need oxygen to burn.
Du hast miche gefragt €
The plastic puts off a caustic smoke and is dangerous to breathe. Try a thin sheet of paper that you can cover with dry sand. It will burn through fast and pour onto the batteries.
The paper will burn slower than the plastic if thick enough not to brake by itself. Also, some plastic burning compare to a LiPo battery.. Also, I cannot contain the sand with paper only.
Burning to death is also dangerous...
Tes vent tu prend mon argent
just make a normal 220 V plug on the outside, then make a complete seal inside. If done correctly you wont ever get a fire ...
Disclaimer: im not a pro
I don't understand what you just said.
Why 220v ? Outside of what ? Seal what ? Why would this prevent my battery to catch on fire ?
@@TOUTest1 I assume the lipo need to be exposed to the air or at least fire need O2 to actually burn (so if you were to put a glass over a candle, assuming that it was sealed, it would not burn. In the same way I Assume lipos will burn if they do. And hence sealing the box itself, having a 220V plug (like those 220v plugs on Xbox, pc, ps3) on the outside that goes to a charger or whatever you use inside to charge them it will be sealed and airless if you somehow remove the air. Did that make sense for you?
@@SkyGamer911 yep..sealing the box so it becomes a bomb sounds like a good idea🤔
@@SkyGamer911 lipos build up pressure, if those welds broke loose on that toolbox your have one hell of a big grenade! It definitely needs vent holes
@@darrellmyers7709 i assumed it needs air to burn. Thsts why u use co2 to put out fires. Because CO2 destroy the oxygen
Serious echo in the room makes you almost impossible to understand. ACCOUSTICS MAN.
My images are so clear that it compensate !
