I guess it taught it a lesson because it charged fine after that and I have been using the same battery for about a year now with no more problems. I heard that if you have a cell reverse giving it a high current shock can flip the cell back. Yours sounds like a different problem considering it is charging, but slowly discharging itself. Sounds like it eather did not charge fully when you charged it, or the battery is just bad.

I got the yellow top replaced at Costco, and so far so good...
