This was brand new in march used 4 times in a buggy "cat sx" which required the lipo retainer to be glued to the bottom of the lipo, I removed the 2 carbon lipo retainers which has ripped some of the clear plastic cover off the bottom of the battery. The lipo has been used once every 3 weeks since around 15 times and i have just noticed the casing has started to part on one of the corners of the lipo and i can't press it back together it also has a superglue like smell.
It has been like this for the last 4 weeks and has got no worse
It still fully charged etc and hasn't been ran low/flat :confused:

mines gone fat in the middle too,had about 25 charges maximum and only used with a 6.5t in a b4 indoors,taking about 1500-1600 out each run before recharging.

unfortunately trakpower dont answer the phone or reply to emails ive sent...not happy.
