    Worked like a charm. My Mom's Dyson v8 was not charging after she came back from a long vacation. Installing the replacement battery with these easy instructions and the vacuum was working like new. The Serial Number and original information could not be moved over to the replacement battery. Just took a picture and put away in a folder for future reference.

if you have got the switch on max slide other way plug it to charge for 3,4 minuite then try should work. do not put on max as it will not work and you will have to do it all over again

My v8 animal has a new battery but it doesn't seem to want to charge. The 1st of the 3 battery lights lights up constantly, the 2nd just flashes and the 3rd never lights up no matter how long it's left on charge. The motor will run ok on the lower setting but cut's out almost instantly in the highest setting.

Could the charger be at fault?

straightforward easy to follow instructions battery may need a bit of a light jiggle to engage the trigger switchgear on reassembly but no problems encountered

I have unsrewed three screws but my battery seems to be stuck as it will only slide out a little but won’t slide out the whole way. Any suggestions??

How long do batteries last? I’ve had mine for 3 years and I’m surprised it’s stopped working.

I've used mine less a dozen times; still has the stickers on it. Doesn't work. Light flashes red then blue when trigger is held. Why is it not working?!
