Your opinion needed. Put my 14.4 battery on the quick charger and after about an hour I checked it only to find it was so hot I could not hold it, also had a burnt smell. This battery was about 3 years old but had gone through probably less than 30 charges on it. Needless to say, the battery is toast Do you think it was just a short in the battery or the charger is bad ? The chargers light was on saying it was fully charged when I took it off.
