My Black & Decker Scumbuster lasted me over 10 years and it will not charge any longer. I don't mind that and wanted to buy a new one but you do not distribute Scumbuster in Canada, so I ended up paying $90. for one in the U.S. to be shipped to Canada. I still think it is worth the money because my shoulders do not very well and the ScumBuster helped me keep my house clean. You should distribute them in the handicapped stores because I know it would be a God send to many people like myself.

..

the batteries inside are made up or two battery packs
5 batteries each.. so 10 batteries total
they are Sanyo KR-1500 batteries out of production
the substitute is Kr-1800sc a little longer amp hour rating..
(so that would equal a little longer run time)
you will have to make sure you get batteries with the soldering tab on them... as you will have to solder your own packs back together.. you can probably get the batteries on ebay for about 25 bucks on up...
or you can get the made up packs for 29 bucks each plus shipping
Part # 5KR1800SCEW from batteriesamerica (just search that part#)
and you will still need to cut and solder wires together to make it work... so another disposable product
but that's over 58 bucks and you can get a new vacuum for 50.00 not sure if the new ones come with the new batteries or the discontinued ones....

Harry,
The Scumbuster replacement pads can be purchased at Ace Hardware, as well as other hardware stores. You can also buy them online at TotalVac.com and TheGreatHardwareStore.com They are fairly inexpensive at all of these places. I hope this helps solve your problem. If you have any further questions, please feel free to e-mail me.

Thank You,
Lynn

Good Luck,

I drp a screwdriver through one of holes in the blade; that "locks the blade" when the screwdriver comes up against the sole plate. Works great for tightening as well.

According to B&D, the nicad battery can be replaced & disposed of at a DeWalt Factory Service Center; call ahead for battery availability. Also, for DIY folks, peruse the instruction manual at http://www.dewaltservicenet.com/documents/English/Instruction%20Manual/90500564.pdf
