That was written soon after getting saw in February 2017. Now it is January 2018, and the battery is shot. Not good…

The batteries have a warranty; he should see if it is covered.  There is a bit of 'magic' in these batteries; I know that heat will hurt them, and charging any frozen Li-Ion battery is a no-no. They have a life, But sometimes, cells 'go bad'.  Oregon has pretty good customer service - he should at least contact them. Prices have come down if he has to buy a replacement.

I have some of these batteries going back 6+ years, with a couple of dozen charges on each one.
