Please see the following related mfr.Reports: #3010617000-2015-00172 for autopulse® resuscitation model 100 with sn: (b)(4); #3010617000-2015-00174 for autopulse® li-ion battery with sn: (b)(4), #3010617000-2015-00175 for autopulse® li-ion battery with sn: (b)(4).Investigation results for the returned battery are as follows: please note that the customer also returned autopulse multi-chemistry charger (mcc) with sn (b)(4).Visual inspection of the charger found that one of the pins in the right bay of the charger was pushed in.This led to an intermittent connection between the charger and the batteries inserted into the charger.A review of the charger's and returned battery's archive data was performed and found that li-ion battery with sn: (b)(4) experienced intermittent bouts of charging and not charging, until it was eventually disabled by the charger when it did not pass the performance test in (b)(4) 2014 due to the bad connection with the charger's pin.
