Hmmmm....

I will unplug the battery and see if that helps any...


The best way to tell is to measure the DC voltage
of your fully charged battery pack. NiCd cells should
be 1.2 - 1.4 VDC each after a full charge.
If your pack has 4 NiCd cells, it should measure 4.8 - 5.6 VDC
after a full charge. If it measures a lower voltage, then
one or more cells is probably shorted.
