My nan bought 1 of these a few years ago and the battery is flat despite recharging it. I took a note of the details on the battery which says " Corun Ni-Cd SC2000mAh 7.2V.

Found this on the interweb, would it be suitable. ?

Ive contacted the manufacturers but no reply yet.

  • It is not easy to find a battery for this carpet wizard but you can use model car battery. Floureon 2500 off EBAY full details are
    NiMH battery 7.2volts 2500nAH. £11.99
    But it is too tight to fit in. you have to take off the outer wrapping and end caps then it will fit into sweeper. Then find very small connectors or solder connection but it works OK
