I've had this battery for just a short time, but:
It arrived sooner than I expected
Fits the drill with no problems
Charges quickly
Holds a charge
Will likely re-visit the vendor again.
EDIT: Been using it for light duty, DIY things for a year now. It still works fine; I just wish the charge would last a little longer.
NOTE:
I've heard that you can "reset" the cells (whatever that means) by leaving it on the charger for 24 hours. So far I haven't noticed a difference, but I plan to try it again. I mention it now just to share the knowledge in case it works for someone. Eventually I'll add update.
Happy drilling.

Hi there vmv,
Well, there are a number of things that can cause this, the most common
would be that once the cells are inserted into the case some of the terminals
short out. Sometimes some insulation paper has to be inserted between cells.
Watch for a problem when the trigger is pulled in too, as it may push
against some cells (some models only).
See if you can take the cells out and connect with wires to see if the
problem still exists. If it goes away, then look for a short once the cells
are put into their final place in the drill body.
Another problem that comes uip some times is the negative of one cell
shorts to the negative of a previous cell in the series string of cells,
causing that previous cell to short out completely and that would get
very hot.
Just a thought, but does the problem stop when you stop running
the drill too?
Just to note, the tabs are usually fine for these apps.
