UPDATE: Replacement battery as expected

UPDATE: Seller emailed me and sent me a replacement battery. I've been using this pack for three days now and it's working as expected - around 80 minutes on a single charge. Apparently the first battery sent was defective. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I bought this battery because it has a higher capacity than the OEM battery and my previous battery was nearing the end of its life (only 15 minutes on a single charge). The battery was received on time and installed without any problems. I then fully charged the battery before testing the performance in my dust collector robot. The initial mileage was not very good. only about 30 minutes. In the last few months I have noticed that the runtimes of my vacuum robot with this Firstpower battery are not nearly as long as with the last new OEM battery I had. I've charged this new battery from full to full multiple times, but the run time stayed at around 40 minutes. My previous OEM battery lasted about 80 minutes per charge. I will never buy this brand of battery again.
