jace1969 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Had a Dyson v8 for a good 3 years and i have got a charging problem,put it on the charging pod and blue light flashes (3 lights 1 solid 2nd flashes) but leave it for say 10mins and they all go out,tried moving it and taking off and on but just does the same and if i use it i only get 2 blue lights so not fully charged but can't tell when it is charged. Any advice on this and also if i do need a new cordless what would you get, don't really want to pay £350+ but want a dam good suction and running time.

Jonro2009 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 The batteries on these things can be easily replaced, just a small screw I think, and they cost around £70 so that might be an option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See i would say it's the battery and i have had the Dyson for close to 3 years but never had this problem where i click it in to charge and second blue light flashes then all goes off. I just was seeing if this indicates the battery doing this or a dead Dyson as its taken some stick. amazon sells a copy battery for £45 area with 800+ sales and very good reviews like 4.7 out of 5 starts with only 7% bad and 85% 5 stars.

HandsomeStan Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 My mother in laws was doing this, new battery sorted it out and it’s like new again. She bought one from eBay for around £40 and is working fine. after 3 years your run time must have been severely reduced, should think you’ll be pleasantly surprised how good the V8 can be again after a new battery 🙂👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just went for a non-genuine one and its like a new one now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
