OK then. But I think you forfeit all right to complain if it burns up a
pack. I also STRONGLY recommend others NOT to follow your lead in ignoring
the instructions of the manufacturer.

I may not be as smart as some, but I figure if the guy who designed it and
makes it tells me NOT to do something, then maybe he knows what he is
talking about. I'm just one of those silly people who thinks the
manufacturer knows more about his product than I do.

Oh well.

This entire hobby is an exercise in finding new ways to use existing parts and materials to benefit the flying experience.

If I did what the manufacturer suggested, I wouldn't be using
a starter motor for a winch, ejector pins for wing rods, an
automotive battery charger as a foam cutting power source,
bolts for soldering tips when making packs, a 5 gallon air
tank as a vacuum resevoir, flourescent light ballasts as
building weights, etc.

I don't see any benefit in concealing information.  I leave
it up to each individual to decide for themselves the value,
and risks, in any endevour before they attempt it.

Thank you though, for pointing out the manufacturer's
warning.
