I dont think that was alarming at all. I'm not sure anyone on here expects their packs to last (in use) more than about a year. I know I sure don't. We (RC'ers) probably use/abuse our packs harder than anyone else does.
But what he said about the 3-4 year expectancy looks to be dead on. These packs I bought are now 3+ years old, and are probably on their last fizzz (thats gotta be an official electrical term, right?)

While I'm a little pissy about the age of the packs I purchased, I did purchase them for basically bottom dollar. Sometimes a good deal is in fact too good to be true.

I've got 400 in Lowes gift cards save up.....waiting for them to start carrying Dewalts 36V line - that is unless the DW finally decides she wants that masterbathroom finshed.....
