All I can say is- sorry? I was not happy with mine. I suggest you contact Dirt Devil and find out if they may exchange it for a new one or have a fix. I don't recommend this model.

We threw our dirt devil away. It had little suction and the battery lasted about 5 minutes fully charged. Do not buy.

Sorry, I don't know what is wrong. My biggest problem was with the life of 3 batteries. The just didn't last long enough. Disposed of original then the 2 replacements are either not charging or won't hold the charge. I was really disappointed since we like the vacuum so well. Wish it could be converted to a cord. Good luck with it.

Try letting it charge for a bit first. It operates off an internal battery as far as I can tell, and the power charges it.

I do not know what the problem might be in your laptop. But if the battery is fully charged & plugged in, it will not charge (since it does not need to). If the battery is not charged and does not charge when plugged in, I would contact the seller.

Might be a faulty or dead battery. You might have left it empty for too long.I own 5 of the 850 and 2 of yhe 860 and they work great. I do have a feeling one of my (7) batteries isnt holding a charge as well as the others but I havent run any tests yet.Typically I can do a 10 hour wedding on 2 batteries.

I have not had that problem, yet! Sometimes a battery will not receive a charge. I would buy a new battery for a cure>

I had the same problem and found the controller was not connected well. The battery connections are not very user friendly either. I took the motor and connected directly to the battery and it worked. I then checked power out of controller when I forced a turn on, all worked fine. So, it knew it was a bad controller to motor connection. I kept on messing with the connector , controller to motor, and it finally started working. I am talking about the connection inside the hopper that connects motor to controller.

Battery probably bad. If you let NiMH get absolutely flat (discharged) they CAN reverse polarity.

Have you tried changing the battery? I have had some strange behavior with my M50 the past few days. I just now replaced the old battery with a new one. It looks like it is behaving correctly again. Give it a shot.

I had the same problem. It would never fully charge my new motorcycle battery. It would say that it was charged but it would not even turn over. So the charger went in the trash. Sorry I couldn't help.

I've had similar problems with mine since I got it new. Barely keeps a charge and dies out after a couple of uses.

Sorry, I have never had that problem with mine.. Mine holds it's charge for a long time.

I think we all have that problem. It only works when plugged in. They are notorious for not holding a charge.

How old is the battery? Are you allowing the battery to get a full charge? It could could also be that your battery has a couple dead cells.

Try running something not as power demanding and see if it works. Do you have a multimeter? What type/capacity battery is it? How are you charging the battery?
