Also, I would suggest that there are many dangerous chemicals inside both the battery and the control boards (heavy metals, lead, etc). Unless you plan on somehow eating your control components and battery, they are usually benign. Having lead sealed inside your frame would hardly be dangerous - though it might make quite a mess if you managed to fracture your frame  |
This is true...
it was in the safety quiz (a question about using lead free solder, and i got it wrong)
also John Antilla mentioned that it after he said we had a electronic heat gun..
but i don't know the rule in question
