Lithium ion batterys are the cause of a lot of fires. The chemistry of the battery is stable within a very specific voltage window. In order to keep the battery with in the safe range of voltage they enginner safety systems into the 1. the battery 2. the charger and 3. The cordless tool..the safety system will prevent the battery from going into “thermal runnaway” or “boom boom”. Be careful when using knock offs and don't assume the internal components are the same as a genuine. Lots of lithium ion battery fires stem from cheaply made battery packs being charged or used in device that it was not engneried and tested for. You tube lithium ion battery thermal run away for examples.
Good info
I' only buy from Home Depot, because you void your warrantee if you buy from Amazon.
