Investigation results for the returned battery as follows: functional testing confirmed the customer's reported event.The unit was disabled by the test multi-chemistry charger (mcc).The battery's archive data was reviewed and could not confirm that the battery was used on the reported event date of (b)(6) 2015.However, the last recorded date of use was on (b)(6) 2015.Further review of the archive data revealed that the battery was not charged for more than 7 days.The unit was in and out of the charger indicating "conditional cycle cancelled" and never completed conditional cycle and load test.Based on the evaluation, the reported complaint was confirmed and attributed to the customer prematurely removing the battery from the multi-chemistry charger prior to the conditional cycle being completed and the load test passing.
