It comes fully charged and works flawlessly with Roomba twice. After 32 days (2 days after the end of the return period), the battery is not charged at all. I contacted the seller to see what they would do and got no response. Maybe it was a bad unit, or maybe they're all bad. Are you willing to take the risk? I wouldn't do it after reading this review. I took a chance with a product that had no reviews and I lost. Learn from my mistake.
