Voltz Charge Vault LiPo Fireproof Sack Small 10cm x 20cm VZ1002

Overview

The Voltz Charge Vault LiPo Sack in Small (10cm x 20cm) is an essential safety accessory for any RC enthusiast in the UK who operates lithium polymer batteries. Whether you're into RC cars, RC drones, RC helicopters or any other RC hobby that relies on LiPo power, this fireproof bag is designed to protect your family and home from the potential hazards associated with LiPo battery charging. LiPo batteries are incredibly efficient and powerful, making them the preferred choice for RC vehicle enthusiasts across the United Kingdom, but they require careful handling and proper safety precautions during the charging process.

The compact Small size makes it ideal for protecting smaller capacity LiPo batteries commonly used in 1/18, 1/16 and smaller scale RC models, as well as smaller drone batteries and RC accessories. By investing in a proper LiPo charge sack, you're taking responsible action to safeguard your home, your family and your RC hobby investment.

RC Model Shop recommends this product to all RC car UK enthusiasts, RC aircraft flyers, and anyone else using LiPo batteries in their RC hobbies. The Voltz brand is trusted throughout the RC community for producing reliable, high-quality battery accessories and power solutions. This fireproof bag represents one of the most cost-effective safety investments you can make in your RC setup.

Technical Performance

The Voltz Charge Vault Small is engineered with safety as the primary focus, utilising fireproof materials that are specifically selected and tested to contain thermal events associated with LiPo battery failures. When a lithium polymer battery experiences a malfunction—whether due to overcharging, physical damage, manufacturing defect, or other factors—the chemical reaction can generate extreme heat and flames. This fireproof sack is designed to suppress and contain that fire, preventing it from spreading to surrounding materials and protecting your charging area. The 10cm x 20cm dimensions have been carefully chosen to accommodate smaller capacity LiPo batteries commonly found in RC cars, RC drones, RC quadcopters and compact RC aircraft without being oversized or cumbersome. The compact form factor makes this ideal for users who charge multiple smaller batteries or who have space constraints in their charging setup. The construction quality reflects Voltz's commitment to reliability and safety—this is not a decorative bag but a functional safety device engineered to perform under extreme conditions. For RC enthusiasts in the UK operating 2S, 3S or smaller 4S LiPo batteries in their RC vehicles and aircraft, this Small size represents the appropriate balance between protection and practicality.

Safety and Charging Best Practices

• Never Leave Batteries Unattended — Even with a fireproof charge sack in use, you must always remain present and attentive whilst charging LiPo batteries. Never leave a charging battery unattended, even for short periods. Attend to your charging setup at all times.
• Use a Proper LiPo Charger — Always charge LiPo batteries with a dedicated balance charger designed for lithium polymer cells. Never use standard chargers or attempt to charge LiPo batteries with incorrect equipment.
• Charge in a Safe Location — Set up your charging station away from flammable materials, on a non-flammable surface such as concrete or tile, and in an area where a potential fire would not endanger people, pets, or important property.
• Inspect Batteries Regularly — Before charging, visually inspect your LiPo batteries for signs of damage, puffing, leaking, or physical defects. Never charge damaged batteries. Dispose of damaged LiPo cells properly at a recycling facility.
• Store Safely Between Uses — Store charged LiPo batteries in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keep them in a storage bag or fireproof container between charging and use.
• Extreme Caution Always — The Voltz Charge Vault is designed to reduce risk, but it does not eliminate risk entirely. Always practice extreme caution when handling, charging and using LiPo batteries as part of your RC hobby.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What size LiPo batteries will fit in the Small Charge Vault? — The 10cm x 20cm dimensions of the Small Charge Vault make it suitable for smaller capacity LiPo batteries, including those typically used in micro and compact RC cars, small FPV drones, RC quadcopters, and 1/18 scale RC models. For larger capacity batteries used in 1/10 scale buggy and truck racing, you may want to consider the Medium or Large Charge Vault instead.
• Is the Voltz Charge Vault fireproof rated to a specific temperature? — The Charge Vault is manufactured with fireproof materials designed to contain and suppress flames from LiPo battery thermal runaway events. However, specifications regarding exact temperature ratings are not publicly detailed by the manufacturer, and you should always follow the safety precautions of never leaving batteries unattended whilst charging.
• Can I use this to store LiPo batteries long-term? — Yes, this fireproof sack is suitable for protecting LiPo batteries during storage between uses. Always store LiPo batteries in a cool, dry place, and consider storing them at a partial charge level (around 3.8V per cell) rather than fully charged for extended storage periods to maximise their lifespan and safety.
• What is the difference between the Small, Medium and Large Charge Vault sizes? — The Small Charge Vault measures 10cm x 20cm and is designed for smaller capacity LiPo batteries. The Medium measures 22cm x 18cm and is suitable for mid-range batteries. The Large measures 23cm x 30cm and accommodates larger capacity batteries. Choose the size that best fits your typical battery capacity.
• Is this suitable for RC car UK racing at the track? — Yes, many RC enthusiasts use Charge Vaults at the track or airfield for safe charging between races or flights. The Small size is particularly convenient for portable charging setups at RC venues throughout the UK.
• Can I charge my LiPo battery inside the Charge Vault? — Yes, you can charge LiPo batteries whilst they are placed inside the fireproof sack, provided you have room to access the battery connectors and the charger cables. The fireproof material allows for safe charging whilst providing protection in case of a thermal event.
• Do I still need to follow LiPo safety rules if I'm using a Charge Vault? — Absolutely yes. The Charge Vault is a protective measure but not a substitute for proper LiPo handling, charging and safety practices. You must always use a proper LiPo balance charger, never leave batteries unattended during charging, inspect batteries before use, and follow all manufacturer guidelines and best practices for lithium polymer battery safety.
• Is this product suitable for beginners? — Yes, the Voltz Charge Vault Small is an excellent choice for newcomers to the RC hobby. If you are just starting your RC car UK journey or exploring RC drones and aircraft for the first time, investing in proper LiPo safety equipment like this fireproof bag demonstrates responsible hobby practice from day one and protects your home and family.
