That's ok, dude, there's a couple of things you can do with one of those packs if you're not going to race with it. What I like to do with those is remove 2 of the cells on it to make a 4 cell pack which I use to power my comm lathe & also for breaking in a motor's brushes.... :)

Do you have any more batteries of the same type? If so, just hang on to it in case you loose a cell in one of those packs you can replace it with a cell from that pack.

If you have a charger that gets really hot, go out and buy a computer fan and use the battery to power it. Then place the fan on top of the charge and have it pull air away.

Make a four cell to power your lathe. That means you should buy a lathe if you can. You won't regret it. :p

Whatever you do, don't throw it in the trash. Take it to be recycled if you don't want it anymore.
