I bought two Scooba's noticed after 5 months both were having same problems: short run time and different error messages. Called iRobot. They put me through a one hour troubleshooting each Scooba, then explain that there was a defect either in the batteries or instructions of charging. iRobot now instructs there customers not to continuously charge their Scooba's batteries as stated in the instructions. But, to charge for 4 hours then remove battery from Scooba, and charge as needed. Both were shoot. iRobot did replace both without me returning. Now the question: 1)Is there anywhere to buy an extra Scooba battery besides the iRobot site? 2) Has anyone exchanged a Scooba for a iRobot vacumn? 3) Anyone else had this Scooba problem? 4) After I bought two cases of the Clorox solution, only solution that iRobot recommended for the Scooba, iRobot now states white vinegar may be used.

are you saying we can use vinegar instead of clorox scooba? I am about to buy a bulk pack of clorox scooba. If i can use vinegar i can save quite a bit... could you please confirm. I though they suggested to mix vinegar with clorox but not vinegar alone. Am i correct?

its in the instructions that come with the scooba. just dilute vinegar with water.

Roombareview will have all the answers u seek. I bought the scooba and roomba and love em. Irobot needs to fix their manuals. The battery info is on the review site along with the vinegar info. I have just used the scooba juice and my floors are cleaner than ever. I may try the vinegar but solution online is cheap enough on sale to make it worth it imho
