Hi all, I have a Neato Botvac 80 that has ceased to charge. I have installed a new battery. The battery voltage per a multimeter is 13.8 volts, the voltage on the charger terminals is 18.3v
I hooked up to it with Neato Control and got some weird looking values for the battery, see below.
Additional notes - the unit will power on as it sits on the charging base, and give the “please remove dust bin and turn power switch on” or “my battery is low”, and charging the unit gives me a pulsing amber light for 5-10 minutes followed by a solid amber and sometimes a green light with the unit trying to power up while it’s on the base. It does not respond to any button presses.
Thanks for taking a look.
