All it would take is one loose wire cutting, screw, washer, or metal shaving (from the heatsink) to bridge exposed connections on the board and get things started... p.s.- love your content @Hsiang. Holding a DSLR on a pole to take selfie video (instead of an action cam) to tighten depth of field... dedication! 11 hours ago, Tryptych said: As discussed below, bags & mats would be useful for picking up a burning battery in order to 'throw it outside'... but if you're not home, non-rigid insulating devices are unlikely to help Edited January 14, 2021 by RagingGrandpa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh the other post made it sound like this was the reason not just speculation and if Hsiang didn't correct you, some would of taken that as fact! There too many armchair specialists here and not enough actual specialists. Where the mechanical, electrical engineers, mechanics etc to give us some insight not just some average Joe who can google and has read a few buzz feed posts that just have a elementary understanding.

Popular Post houseofjob Posted January 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) Educate yourself, and have healthy amount of doubt in everything and everyone. It still surprises me how much people blindly / lazily believe what they hear on YouTube from "experts" / "veterans". YouTube just means they have a camera and know a little bit about how to edit, that is all. Edited January 15, 2021 by houseofjob 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL =D the more I thought about these cascade of issues the more I am turned off by the monster pro, issues with ride control and firmware are minor but if its a fire risk then there's no way I am getting it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
