SOURCE: my dyson dc16 is not holding a charge

I had that SAME problem! It ran for just a few seconds after having a full charge. Cleaned the filters, tried everything. Just needed a new battery...

My Dyson DC16 hand vac's battery finally went out at 4 years, which is about right. I didn't want to pay Dyson $75.00 for a new one!

I found a good deal on ebay for new batteries that didn't break the bank!
That's all it needed.

It's good to have my hand vacuum back! I missed it!

Rock on Dyson.......

      Dyson DC16 will not switch off motor runs until battery is exhausted and will not charge back up, new battery installed motor ran continuously to battery exhausted.

      I bought Dyson DC16 in 2008. Charged full but it only last for 1 minuet. Should I get a new charger? Is Dyson going to send me a new charger?

      Your battery is losing voltage too quick. It has probably developed a 'memory'. Dyson claims that their handheld has the best suction out of all the handhelds out there. In order to maintain that claim the circuit board will shut off power to the motor when the voltage drops below adequate charge for full suction.
      We need someone who can teach us to bypass that part of the circuit so it won't cut power to the motor or you need to get a new battery.
      Shorting the battery like an Aircraft battery then re-charging won't fix it.

      Red light flashing constantly on dc16 when on charge, used to just stay permantly red without flashing until it went green when charged up.

      I had a similar problem when I bought an after market 2Ah battery. Would stay solid red for a few seconds then flash red. I believe my problem was that the battery had gone into "sleep mode" I.e. it was discharged to the point that it "sleeps" in order to protect itself. So......I simply attached a domestic DC multi adapter to the terminals on the battery that are marked + and - (the 2 outside terminals on a DC16 Dyson battery). Switched on the DC adapter for around 10mins and this was enough to "wake" the battery. It now charges as normal attached to the DC16 in the Dyson charge mount.

      For a pretty in depth article on lithium battery sleep have a look at this:

      My DC16 will start and then stop. I have to take

      My DC16 also had charging problems. I called Dyson and they sent a new charger. The old charger only produced 23.6 volts DC, not the rated 28 volts DC. The new charger has a thicker round wire and produces 28.1 volts DC. Put a volt meter on your charger terminals and see if it is producing enough voltage to fully charge the battery, 28 volt DC. If not you need a new charger.
