Hi Kill BIll, thanks for reaching out. When the Spark battery temperature becomes higher, the APP will give you a notification. May I know what happen to your Spark battery? Did you receive an error message on the APP? If yes, please provide a screenshot for further checking. The battery should be used in temperatures from  0°C to 40°C. Please take note, do not charge the battery immediately after flight, because the battery temperature may be too high. You can charge it again after it cools down to near room temperature. Please tap on "Reply" button so that I can receive notification from your response. Thanks for your support.

Hi Bill,

If a battery gets hot (not warm) while charging, something is seriously wrong. The charger can get warm to the touch, that's normal.
These batteries are lithium ones, so you shold not charge them without supervision. A burning LiPo can really ruin your day....

Cheers,

I have had a battery refuse to charge because it was too hot (right hand battery light on), and that was at least 10 min after a flight. I use the foam box the Spark came it and I think it is too good an insulator.

If you do not use a charging hub for your drone, then do not charge the batteries when the feel hot to the touch.

Room temperature in storage in my house and as close to it as possible in the car during transport only. The battery should remain cool during the whole charge (only the charger should be warm). In flight on a hot day I have noticed temperatures exceed 40c but it quickly cools down after landing.
