Once a battery puffs (which yours have), it's pretty much a ticking time bomb waiting to explode. It's time to retire those packs and replace them. Sadly, I've seen the same behavior from the recent batch of LRP packs sold in the US; must be a bad batch of cells...

My personal experience with LRP can be summarized as follows: LRP = (L)ow (R)eliability (P)roducts... Try a different battery manufacturer, and you'll most likely have a better experience.
