This battery is a decent replacement for the Scooba. I would say it powers the Scooba for as long at the original battery and it does cost less. I do hope it has a longer overall life. My only complaint is that is does not seat as well in the Scooba and usually takes some wiggling to get it in place properly.

I ordered this battery about a month ago. I was hoping to find one that would last longer than the IRobot battery that died after a lot less time than they said it would (yet, just outside warranty, of course). It came in a box with nothing but the battery: no instructions or anything about it.
The battery definitely functional, but doesn’t fit quite right in the Scooba. I store it on its side in order to keep the wheels from going flat, and because the battery wasn’t snapping in, it kept losing contact. I also had the problem when I tried to put it on the floor and run it. The tank no longer snaps in easily, and the battery just feels too tall for it.
I have managed to make it work, and I even think I got it snapped in better after playing around with it for awhile, but I think I should have just bought the one IRobot makes. I’m not going to return it because it is functional, but when it dies, I won’t be buying another one.

After receiving this battery promptly, we charged it overnight and now have a Scooba that cleans two bathrooms and a large kitchen/ pantry area. We have yet to see the dreaded red light with this battery. Works for me, and the price is great. Nice to have our Scooba back.

Worked as advertised. Straight drop in. Subjectivly, it appears to have longer run time between charges.
