Can I use frozen and defrosted batteries?

I very much doubt it. Cold 'kills' the charge in batteries. Underload they'll soon flat line.

You can squeeze a bit more juice out of flat batteries by warming them in your hands but the extra few volts wont last long.

If they're lipos and have puffed up, then they're deffo knackered.

I've used Nikon camera battery packs in the Arctic that have been frozen solid and still been revived.

Amazing how all that still and video footage comes from all those old, cold, unrevivable, batteries.

You are lucky the cops didn't raid your place.

Having frozen batteries in the freezer would have got the anti-terrorist squad highly excited and you'd be on your way to Gitmo by now.

Honestly, the best place to hide something is in PLAIN VIEW.

I'll never forget my uncle's sofa in Belfast.

3-seater made from semtex.

Perfectly safe unless you jumped on it.

Various raids never found it. It was too obvious you see.

Never had any problems, until he got a labrador.
