My cordless nailer's battery crapped out mid-job on a deck in Phoenix last Thursday.

I mean, it was 108 degrees and I had to finish the railings by hand, which sucked, but maybe it's just me or does the heat murder those lithium packs faster than they say?

Yeah, Phoenix heat will do that. My old drill battery basically turned into a paperweight after one summer out there.

120 degrees in the shade will kill anything with a lithium ion in it. My crew leaves their batteries in the truck and by noon they're cooked. Had a guy last summer toss a drill battery that was swelling up like a balloon. Phoenix heat doesn't play around.

Used to think they were tough, but that heat really does cook them.
