After I got my Mini I bought some other stuff like extra batteries (have 3 now), this charger, spare props (8 pairs), ND fiters, hard case and a lens hood. I even have an anemometer just to check wind speeds on the ground. I've been using these for over a month now and thought I'm all set for if I want to shoot nice scenes outside in the wildernis. Well this morning my phone battery was low so I decided to use the charger as powerbank. Stuffed 2 of my batteries in and it worked for like half an hour or so.
I had to step out for a moment and pulled the phone off the "powerbank" and left the charger with the batteries in it inthe bus. After coming back (after 5-7 mins I think) I started smelling burned plastic so I turned to the guys in the bus to ask if they were also smelling it. Confirmed by others. I looked beside me and saw smoke coming out of my backpack, immediately opened it and pulled out the charger. It started to catch on fire right after I took it out of the bag. Quickly pulled out the batteries and the fire died.
check this out....
I haven't checked the batteries yet but I hope they're still ok.... Can I just pop them in the Mini and see if it starts or give any warnings and so?
Anyone seen this happening before?
