Default Odd Dyson fault

Sounds like a fault in the charger, or maybe the battery is on the way out
and confusing the charging system, ie going down when its fully charged with
no load and the charger is not set to notice until its removed and replaced
again. If you know how long it takes to fully charge, try that long before
you need it removing it and then replacing it on the charger.
It then is pretty certain the battery is self discharging if it works.

We have a handheld rechargeable Dyson that mostly works very well.
Recently it has started to seem like its battery is dying.

It lives on its charger under the stairs all the time but it's started to
"die" after just 10-15 seconds of use and displays a flashing blue "low
battery" indicator. The thing is, if I put it back on charge for just 5
seconds it comes back to life and I can get many minutes of use out off it
before the battery really runs low.

Anyone else come across this?
