Default What is the trick to replacing rechargeable batteries please?

I often wonder why people don't call the manufacturer first. Is it
that difficult?

I would contact iRobot and ask them what the recommended procedure is.

On the assumption that iRobot is not stupid, and knows that the
batteries will eventually have to be replaced, it seems reasonable
that the wires from the batteries connect to a push-on terminal on the
main board. If this is so, you'll have to get the iRobot batteries.





Or take the pack to a Batteries Plus store or other rebuilder and have a
new pack built. Usually at a lower cost than a new OEM pack.
