Battery freshness questionableNov 19, 2009 I received my Roomba battery from go-vacuum. I followed the standard battery reset and charge procedure only to have the robot run for two minutes and die. After calling iRobot, the determination was that the battery had been sitting in inventory for too long. I paid the shipping to return the battery. iRobot shipped a battery to me for free.

Held it's charge for 2 months...Oct 26, 2009 I bought this to replace an original dead batter for the Roomba. I followed the charging procedures and then let it do it's thing. The battery lasted for about two months. After that, the roomba would dock and charge full, then when I told it to clean, it'd start cleaning for 15 secs, then it'd start beeping and die. Now my Roomba just sits on the ground collecting dust.
Defective Battery/ Home Base Charging UnitSep 12, 2009 I purchased and received two batteries. Since they take overnight basically to charge, I put one in each sweeper and left overnight. In the meantime my wife destroyed the packaging materials, P/L, etc. in her usual manner of cleaning up my waste. The next day I used one of the sweepers as a test and all was fine. When I tried the second one, even though the green light says fully charged, the unit would go app 4 inches and stop with the red lighs and dead battery beep. Several attempts to charge the battery have failed. The one good battery will chare just fine in the 2nd sweeper.
In another purchase I bought the quick charger Home Station that goes with the Roomba Sweeper. It will not work to charge the battery. I can plug straight into the unit and battery charges just fine. Not so in the home base charging unit.
In a word or two, I was hosed two times buying here for the same type replacement products.
I am out app. $100.00 for a really bad experience.

Not an authentic iRobot brand batterySep 02, 2009 I just received this order and discovered that, despite the deceptive photo for the product description, this is a generic replacement and not an authentic iRobot brand battery. I have not yet tested it to see how well it performs; but I am quite upset with the deceptive product description. Now that I read the reviews others have written, I find several reviews that point out that this is a generic brand battery-- I wish I had read those more carefully before buying this battery.
There are several other companies selling aftermarket batteries for the Roomba on Amazon. I have no idea if they are better or worse than this one-- but several are cheaper and clearly identify themselves as aftermarket, 3rd party batteries. I decided to pay a little bit more for this battery because I thought I was getting an iRobot brand battery.
So, if you are considering buying this battery hopefully you read these reviews more carefully than I did and know ahead of time what you are getting for your money.
