  1. Looks like a design or manufacturing error. The battery has not been designed or manufactured to meet the high current draw of the tool of sustained periods. Here in Australia we have 3 pin 10Amp power points and then we have 3 pin 15Amp power points with a larger earth pin so that you can't plug a 15A plug in a 10A socket. Sometimes people file the pin down so that it fits in the smaller rated point but the 10A socket is only manufactured to 10A tolerances. It works in the short term but the end result is you end up drawing 12 or 13 amps through the 10A socket and the first sign is the back plastic casing melts just like what you are seeing with your batteries. Either the design specifications are wrong or the manufacturer is not meeting the product specifications.
