I've heard a few stories in answer to these questions which throw a bit of doubt on the statement that started this thread.

QUOTE "The pack had only been chagred at 6 volts and with a heat sensor, the pack must have shorted out some way?" UNQUOTE

Presuming that should be 6 amps not volts - what temp was the "heat sensor" cut out set at ?

It's important that we have all the FACTS !
Sorry Heavy about the amps/volts thing, all i know is that it had a heat sensor on it while charging and that it had been charged at 6 AMPS when fully charged it was put in a battery tray. Not sure if it had been repeaked or anything. I just want to let people know if you see batteries act like this, to take immediate action, from this experiance.
