Possible Causes
Battery not fully cycled regularly, Age-related drift in battery management system, Mixed use of multiple batteries with different ages, Faulty battery electronics
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Monitor the vacuum during use and avoid running the battery to complete shutdown repeatedly.
- 1. Perform a calibration cycle:
- Fully charge the battery until the charger indicates full.
- Use the vacuum on normal mode until it stops by itself.
- Allow the battery to cool, then fully recharge without interruption.
- 2. Observe LED behaviour: After calibration, check if the indicator is more accurate.
If the indicator remains erratic and runtime is also poor, replace the battery pack.
