Welcome to the largest gathering of Arima boat owners anywhere. We are a forum based gathering of Arima Boat enthusiasts that like to pleasure cruise, fish, camp, and hunt. While Arimas are centered in the PNW, we have members across the globe. It is 3/4's water after all. Lurk, join up, and post about your Arima upgrades, family trips, and of course, your fishing exploits. Just remember to add photos whenever possible.

    Video of effects of physical damage/shorting of Lion-LiPo batteries - handle with care.   A bad jump-start pack can burn down your boat.  If you see this start to happen - with any device, no matter how expensive it was - toss it overboard immediately.

as long as you're balancing your cells, taking normal precautions, and not stabbing them you will be fine. I have Lipo cells 10+ year old doing just fine. never had an issue and have run them in planes 20 watts to 220cc since I was a kid.
