Found a great video for those new to Mechs and Batterys

[Myrany]

While out scrounging various sites looking at Mechs I found this video that covers Battery handling, Safety and the general concepts of Mech mods.

Although I do not completely agree with what he says to do in the case of a battery venting (I doubt I would have time to do anything more than get it out of the house and onto concrete), I find the rest of the video to be an excellent introduction to the concepts involved.

I hope this helps someone.

ACK hit the wrong section: Can a mod please move this to general?
