Oh, glad you're ok and still have all your fingers and toes.
I charge all of my NiMH batteries in a dark corner of my room under a 120V AC fan. I've never had a battery over heat on me like that battery did. It must've been a faulty cell or a short.

I need to invest in a temperture gauge. My Dad needs one for his nitro engines and I need one for my batteries; it'd be a good investment.
