You also need cheap donor batteries and an expensive RC model charger which is not suitable for everyday work.

When that video finished it linked to this which is even more workable:

Don't know how much luck you will have trying to restore them unless one of the ideas above works.

You can get replacements easily enough http://www.drill-battery.co.uk/cordless/battery.php/BOSCH but some of them are bloody expensive. Depends on the drill. It may be a better idea to get a new one.

If it's got new style battery's , I've heard they don't like charge in a cold place like a shed.
