I wouldn't put any high energy density battery inside any of my radios. 
  The probability of a problem is very small.  The impact if the 
probability becomes 1.0 is a new radio at the least, and possibly more. 
  My LiPoly for my KX1 [about the size of a small box of matches] is on 
a pigtail I can grab and fling off if it catches fire.  One has.
