How long should a neato battery last?
The batteries typically last 100-150 recharges (McNair stamping). So each time the Neato goes back to the charging base for a recharge, you are slowly eating away the life. In my situation of cleaning 1-2 times a week (3 charges each), the batteries typically last 8 months (I wish it was longer).
How do I update Neato software?

What was the problem with the Neato battery?
The problem was that during any subsequent cleaning cycle, the battery would only last 10 minutes before the Neato would return to the base to recharge. The battery was as good as “dead”.
What do the battery capacity metrics on the Neato mean?
These metrics are used to determine how much battery capacity is left and when the Neato should return to the base to recharge. (As mentioned elsewhere, NiMH batteries maintain their voltage until just before the battery “dies”. Therefore the Neato needs to project expected runtimes from historical usage data.)
How does the Neato know when to charge the battery?
When cleaning is finished or the battery is running down, the Neato navigates backwards through each way point (just like a maze), “knowing” that the final way point will be the charging base.
How long should a Neato battery last?
