But which battery is better?
Original yellow APS 3000mAh is best, the black NiCD 2200mAh has ~30 mins less running time.
The generic (aka compatible) batteries are made by 3rd party factory, not appointed, nor supervised by iRobot, so QC won't be as strict as iRobot originals. I'm not saying they won't work, but lifespan can vary based on luck.

A starter robot, without docking capability. I woot not bother, but still good for old folks who just want super simple.

i'm thinking to getting one, but due to old folks better keep it pass.

I have a born and breed 535 that I adopted in 2007, it's still w me. Just about 2 batt changes so far. Roomba are damn hardy machines, except the PSU. ;p
lol. my 555 looks good still, but battle-scarred. lol. dun ask me why but my 555 likes to get itself into tight corners

Buy from eBay battery is took from remanufactured roomba battery, if you shiped it to Sg still the same price, does not diff.
(If they sent the old battery and the production date is made from 2008-09 so you still can't see the actual battery).

I will suggest you buy from iRobot website and $USD74.50 and ship to your US address and transfer it to SG = $SGD110 still consider cheaper, if you would like to try it.
