Try the recommended "cheap" $5 2 cell chargers.
About 600mah charging rate, might get a noticeable, but safer, degree rise if bad.
Any heat dissipates at safer temperature.
As for thermal runaway, from soldering, try following my recommendations.
I've soldered, literally, hundreds & hundreds of cells, with nary a mishap.
3 - 80cell packs & 2 - 84cell & 1 - 40cell(too small for 675w output motor) & many laptop pack replacements.
And, of course, I've always recommended a PCB (Protection Circuit Board - maybe - Protect and Charge Board) to safeguard against overcharging any cell. Search for 25.9v or 37v or 48.1v etc. on eBay etc. Or All-battery.com
Also ... I agree that Li-ion, Lipo etc. can be dangerous, typically due to: mistakes, uninformed experimentation, faulty equipment etc.
The informed mind is the prepared mind! Basic electrical knowledge, reasonable quality equipment, a template of success, and common sense, should make Li-ion production a rewarding experience!
