"Only difference is me exceeding my amp limit by 5 amps won't vent my batteries."

He meant that exceeding a CDR by ~5A for a short time typically won't cause a battery to vent. It will cause it to get too hot and shorten its life, though, so if you made it a habit, you might get one to vent.

A hard short is the type of thing that can cause instant, potentially dangerous battery failure.

I know, but he was talking about how people need to stop being so stupid when it comes to battery safety and less then 1 minute later, I know this 0.16Ω build is too low for a single battery mech mod, LOL, but......

give me a fricking break...talk about safety and then totally ignore it

I love that he put a cell in backwards and melted down the sled of his Castrator Castigador... whatever the hell it's called.

I think there's video of it. :p
