Seems like my battery has died in my Dyson V6. Had it just over 2 years, so conveniently just out of warranty. Status LED flashes red on charge and if you try to use it.
I see there are plenty of replacements on Amazon etc, around £30.
Anyone had experience with changing theirs? I was expecting to have to buy the cells and re-solder them into the unit. But looks like you can get whole replacement units which just screw on. Wouldn't mind getting a higher capacity while I was at it. Any recommendations?
 
It looks simple to change on the video if you scroll down this link: https://www.dyson.co.uk/support/journey/tools/967810-21.html

Have you contacted Dyson to see what they say? 2 years seems a little short! I looked at replacements on dysons website when I first got my V10 and it had a price of £80 for a genuine one. Amazon has them for about £30 too so I think I would try one of those when mine goes.
 
Have you contacted Dyson? You might get a goodwill replacement if it's only just outside the guarantee period. They sell themselves as being great on customer service, so it's in their interests to go further than mandated.
 
I haven't contacted them yet. I know one of my Dyson's (i have a normal upright too) was from their outlet, which is only one year warranty. Will check it's not this one first.
 
I've had to do this on my Dyson a little while ago, purchased a replacement battery from Amazon (mine was a bit older than two years), it was really easy to do and made an massive difference.
 
I've ordered one from eBay. Bit cheaper than Amazon. Went for the largest capacity I could find. 4000MAh. Current one had 2100MAh. Hoping for a good boost in performance / run time.

Official or 3rd party?

This seems awfully cheap?

3rd party. I bought one very similar to that, for about the same price.
Looks like theyre mostly from the same manufacturer.
 
My V6 battery went just outside of warranty too. Contacted Dyson and they sent me out a new one for free.
