   I've seen inside drill batteries before (NiCad ones) and there's usually just   
   three terminals to the pack, -ve, +ve, and one for the temperature sensor.    
   But this one has a 4th pin, which is connected to the -ve of the batteries via   
   a 10K resistor.  What    
   is its purpose?

   Bottom left large pin is connected to -ve of cells and one end of the   
   temperature sensor (a little black blob) and one end of the 10K resistor.   
   Right large pin is connected to +ve of cells.   
   Top left large pin is connected to the other end of the temperature sensor.   
   Small pin is connected to the other end of the 10K resistor.   
      
   I don't have access to the charger for this pack, I only bought this pack to   
   take the cells out to replace them in my own battery pack, as this one was   
   half the price.
