Polymer Charge

I bought an MP3 player from the United Kingdom, it uses a lithium polymer battery, should I be careful with it?
I've heard they can explode, I use my USB port to charge the MP3 player, it is a YP-U2.
The MP3 player has a USB adapter on the end of it, so I don't need a cable to charge it.
Someone said that the case on their MP3 player started expanding and that the battery and swollen and pushed the board and the cover off of the MP3 player.
I'm scared that it will explode while I'm using it or charging it in my laptop, if something goes wrong with lithium polymer batteries, they can start shooting flames.
What should I do?
rowlfe: The only charging method is with a USB port, the MP3 has a USB thing on the end of it so it plugs right into the computer to transfer files and charge.
So no, there are no exposed charging contacts.
OK, so the question is this: does the MP3 player have exposed charge contacts like a cell phone? Does it have a separate charger with a "socket" where it sits? If it charges ONLY off the USB, then you have absolutely NO problem whatsoever. The problem comes from exposed charging contacts. Lithium cells are VERY dangerous when short circuited. A battery is a potential energy source. Lithium batteries have the largest potential energy rating of ANY battery. Which means, when short circuited, delivers the MOST energy into the short making the most heat, sparks and potential fire, up to an including exploding the cell! MOST lithium cells used in various devices contain "safety" circuits which limit the charge current and also the discharge current so if shorted, safely discharge rather than explode or make an actual fire. To use an analogy, a regular alkaline battery is like a standard 1-1/2" firecracker but the lithium cell is like an M-80. You can survive the 1.5" cracker in your hand and it will hurt a bit, but with an M-80, you will lose a few fingers.

ThinkPad battery is consumed type components, the performance decreases with time. Here are some to help you maximize battery life, period tips: Make sure you use the correct types for the ThinkPad's AC power adapter. Using the wrong adapter will prevent the battery is fully charged and may cause the battery gauge inaccurate. Do not place the battery or the ThinkPad computer under high temperature. When storing the battery outside the computer, make less than 50% of its capacity to store it under the circumstances to reduce battery aging. Most of the time if you connect the AC power adapter in case of using the computer, and only in a few hours on battery power, you often will charge the battery to 100% is likely to accelerate the aging batteries. If you often rely on AC power using ThinkPa d computer, battery charging lower threshold. Learn about changing the battery charge threshold information. , If you have a Li-ion or lithium polymer batteries, please learn more about the fujitsu laptop battery hp laptop battery information re-setting the battery gauge. If you have a nickel-metal hydride battery, the battery of information about regulation. Use Power management "device" for you to choose the best power programs. Please understand that the use of "Power Manager" message. Note: If a very long time to recharge the battery, the charging takes longer. Note: If the low temperature battery, the battery performance will be temporarily reduced. Note: When the computer uses a lot of power from the battery (for example, intensive calculations or use of high-end graphics applications), then the battery and the computer's temperatures could rise. In this case, the battery may automatically stop charging the battery at a certain level in order to work, so ensure that you can comfortably use the computer and ensure regular battery life. When the battery back to its regular temperature, the battery will start charging.
