[QUOTE="TwoForFlinching, post: 4218517, member: 24500"] Li-ion is also extremely good at keeping a charge in adverse conditions. Cold and heat affect them like any other battery, but not to the extent of ni-cad. I'd buy new batteries if the tools don't have a ton of time on them, but I'd look on Amazon/Ebay for no-name li-ion replacements instead of B&D branded. Odds are, they're the exact same batteries. People online like to talk about the "risks" of no-name batteries, but 10 years of heavy use in top-tier constantly working tools, zero issues in the forty-or-so I've bought and killed. [/QUOTE]
