The 23cm x 30cm dimensions provide ample space to safely contain a battery during the charging process, whilst remaining compact enough to store easily in your workshop, garage, or charging station.
Key Features
- Fireproof Construction — The Voltz Charge Vault is manufactured from fireproof materials specifically selected to withstand and contain the heat and flames generated in the event of a LiPo battery fire. This ensures that if a battery fails during charging, the damage is confined to the interior of the bag rather than spreading to your home or workspace.
- Large Capacity Dimensions — Measuring 23cm x 30cm, this large format fireproof sack accommodates medium to large capacity LiPo batteries commonly used in high-performance RC models. The generous internal volume means you can safely charge the types of battery packs found in most modern RC cars and trucks without compromise.
- Charging Safety — The primary purpose of the Voltz Charge Vault is to provide a dedicated safe charging environment for your LiPo batteries. By isolating the battery during the charging process, you substantially reduce the risk of fire spreading beyond the confines of the bag, protecting your home, family, and other property.
- Damage Minimisation — In the unfortunate event that a LiPo battery does experience a thermal event or fire during charging, the Voltz Charge Vault is specifically engineered to contain and minimise the extent of damage. This means reduced risk to surrounding equipment, structures, and most importantly, people.
- Easy Storage and Use — The Voltz Charge Vault is simple to use: simply place your LiPo battery inside the bag before connecting it to your charger, and monitor the charging process as normal. The bag is lightweight and easy to store, making it a practical addition to any RC hobby setup.
- Essential Safety Accessory — For anyone involved in RC car UK hobbies, RC truck racing, or any form of electric RC model charging, the Voltz Charge Vault is an essential safety accessory. It represents responsible RC practice and demonstrates your commitment to safe charging protocols.
Technical Performance
The Voltz Charge Vault Large is engineered from specialised fireproof materials designed to withstand the extreme temperatures generated during a LiPo battery thermal event. The 23cm x 30cm internal dimensions provide sufficient space for most standard and large-capacity LiPo battery packs used in RC vehicles. The construction quality ensures that the bag maintains its structural integrity even when exposed to the intense heat of a battery fire, preventing the flames and heat from escaping to damage surrounding areas. The materials used are proven in the RC industry and have been selected specifically for their fire-resistant properties. This is not a gimmick or decorative item — the Voltz Charge Vault is a serious piece of safety equipment that has been engineered with the same attention to detail and quality that RC manufacturers apply to their vehicles. The bag is lightweight, making it easy to position on your charging bench or in your charging station, yet robust enough to contain a serious thermal event. Whether you're charging a small pack for your RC buggy or a larger battery for your RC monster truck, the Voltz Charge Vault Large provides the reliable containment and protection you need for peace of mind.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Why do I need a LiPo charging bag for my RC car battery? — LiPo batteries are powerful energy storage devices that can experience thermal runaway if they are damaged, overcharged, or if internal components fail. When this happens, the battery can ignite and burn with intense heat. A fireproof charging bag like the Voltz Charge Vault contains this fire, preventing it from spreading to your home, family, or other property. For any RC hobbyist using LiPo batteries — whether for RC cars, RC trucks, or other electric RC models — a charging bag is an essential safety precaution that should never be skipped.
- Is the Voltz Charge Vault suitable for all LiPo battery sizes? — The large 23cm x 30cm format accommodates most standard and large-capacity LiPo batteries used in modern RC vehicles. This includes the battery packs commonly found in 1/10 scale RC buggies, RC monster trucks, RC short course trucks, and similar vehicles. However, you should verify that your specific battery pack fits comfortably inside the bag before use. The generous dimensions mean that most RC enthusiasts will find this size suitable for their charging needs.
- Can I use the Voltz Charge Vault for batteries other than LiPo? — The Voltz Charge Vault is specifically designed for LiPo batteries, which are the primary concern for RC charging safety due to their fire risk. Whilst the fireproof materials would provide some protection for other battery types, the bag is optimised for LiPo chemistry and should be used for LiPo batteries as intended.
- How should I use the Voltz Charge Vault safely? — Place your LiPo battery inside the Voltz Charge Vault before connecting it to your charger. Monitor the charging process — never leave a charging LiPo battery unattended, even with the protection of a charging bag. Ensure your charger is set correctly for your specific battery (correct cell count, charge rate, etc.) and use quality charging equipment. The Voltz Charge Vault provides containment in the event of failure, but safe charging practices are your first line of defence.
- What makes this fireproof bag different from a regular bag? — A regular bag offers no protection whatsoever from a LiPo fire. The Voltz Charge Vault is manufactured from specialised fireproof materials that are heat-resistant and designed specifically to contain the intense flames and temperatures generated by a LiPo battery thermal event. This engineering makes all the difference between a contained incident and potential disaster.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Yes, absolutely. In fact, the Voltz Charge Vault is especially important for beginners who may be learning proper charging techniques. It provides essential protection whilst you develop good charging habits and skills. Every RC enthusiast, regardless of experience level, should use a fireproof charging bag when working with LiPo batteries.
