The wiring looks to be fixed to the board which is fixed to the battery pack. Can't replace the battery so the whole thing is trash. On the *inside* of the product is a sticker that includes a reminder to recycle your (as you just discovered) irreplaceable lithium ion battery. Insult to friggin injury.

The link in the video description is currently (Aug 2023) pointing to an Amazon listing for the full vacuum, not the battery. Guessing it was changed? No longer useful. :-(
Did you get any link to buy the battery and the BMS?
You can search for CHV1410L battery on ebay. They come from China priced at $35. It requires soldering so not an easy job. Currently you can get the same vacuum on ebay or Amazon for $39 so it's not worth it anymore. Just get a new one.

Of course the batteries are replaceable. If you are handy with small tools and a soldering iron or mini spot welder. The pack, depending on model, consists of 4 or 5, 18650 lithium ion cells. If you can, buy then with solder tabs already attached. That makes the installation much easier. Otherwise you will have to solder directly to the battery cells or use a small tack welder available on Amazon, Temu or eBay. Be careful working with these cells as they pack a lot of energy in a small package and accidentally shorting them could lead to fire or explosion. If you are handy with tools and careful, the batteries are definitely replaceable.
