Here's a little tip regarding powertool batteries:
Like most people we store our Cordless drills etc in the garage or shed.
This is the problem, if you charge your batteries when it's below 5 degrees celcius, the batteries get irreversebly damaged.
Like myself you may have already killed your batteries by charging them with a cold ambient temperature inside your garage.
Whats is common that they reach full charge in ten minutes or less, then they only last for two minutes in use.

So my tip is: store your batteries and charger in the home during the winter months.
This will make sure you get maximum life from your batteries when you need them.
