Worked for some time and then died

I received this battery on September 8th. Installed it in our Roomba 630 and let it charge. Was working fine until two weeks ago. The bot blinks like it's not charged. Sometimes I could take the bot off the charger and press start and it would run for a while (sometimes the normal time, sometimes not) and then come back and charge. Later he simply died and did not return to training. Now, for about the last week, it's just - nothing. I charged it, cleaned the contacts - nothing. It just sits and doesn't load. The bot itself is less than two years old. If the seller sees this and wants to get in touch, I'll be grateful. Can't recommend at the moment - died shortly after 30 days warranty. ** Edited to add - put in the old original battery that originally came in the bot and now it works. A bit quirky at times - but it works. So the battery that I ordered here is the problem. Save money and just order one from Roomba.

Pros
  • A lot of positive emotions
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
