I used to smoke in bed and never started a fire, so does that make it safe? Ummmmm ......

You could get a little lipo charging bag to reduce the risk of burning the house down. Just search for lipo bag on google. Some vendors here sell them to but you'd be cheaper off from an RC model site / shop. (no offense to any vendors) Me too. i leave hudl, laptop charging, mobi, laptop in radio shack on, office pc on sleep. oh and the fridge freezer. If you have ever seen the Michael McIntyre sketch about leaving things plugged in / unplugged have a laugh here. click for a larferuffie

If you buy authentic batteries and authentic chargers and wall-warts, then you are pretty safe. Your chances of having a battery explode are probably over a thousand to one.
Which means you'll still have a thousand batteries explode on you before you win the National Lottery.
It has to happen to someone; it could be you.
So if you ever think you might be lucky enough to win, don't dismiss the idea that you might be unlucky enough to lose.
If you buy cheap, unnamed brands, the odds are much higher.

+1 for NOT letting it charging unattended - better safe than sorry

I used to smoke in bed and never started a fire, so does that make it safe? VapingBad... is that a euphemism for "I'm great between the sheets" sleedale... NO, don't even think about it. ETA: I'm usually 'three sheets to the wind' by the time I hit the sack, so wouldn't hear it go off!

Some may say that Raffles, but I couldn't possibly comment.
