guinty1 Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 (edited) My Karcher window vac has given up the ghost it will not hold a charge, so i think the battery is at fault. Its out of warranty so nothing to lose so took it apart. Attached is a photo of the label on the battery. I have tried to google some of the numbers without success. Does anyone know from the label what battery this is and more importantly where i can get one from. Thanks in advance for any info.

stevo_m Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 My guess would be the 18650 which is a size of battery. http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords=18650+rechargable+battery&tag=googhydr-21&index=aps&hvadid=38239247894&hvpos=1t1&hvexid=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=5254591277631743923&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=b&hvdev=t&ref=pd_sl_7tmw498a1d_b Would need a pic of the actual battery though.

Stonepark Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Standard 18650 li cell, can get replacements from several sources, is it tabbed for soldering, flat top, or buttoned on top? http://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/big_f_d_d?_trksid=p2047675.l2559 is a good source but avoid the cheap .....fire batteries on ebay or elsewhere.
