Who are you and why are you ridiculing this person (who is wheelchair-bound
and needs to charge his wheelchair battery) for using this newsgroup for its
intended purpose, namely to ask for technical advice?

His question was non-trivial. If indeed the heat sink was not properly
assembled at time of manufacture, then he probably has a warranty claim even
after the warranty has expired, because it was a pre-existing problem.

My recommendation was that the shortest, least expensive path to a good
charger might be to have the local technician rebuild the charger (with
minor improvements noted).

In short -- One of the things this person wanted to know is whether the
local technician's advice made sense. And several of us were able to
confirm that it did.
