Replacing 18650 battery cells in a Dyson V6 cordless vacuum battery

Hi YouTube,

I found a Dyson V6 cordless vacuum that seemed to be working fine, except that it would only work for 2-3 minutes.

It seemed like it needed a new battery, so I decided to crack it open and replace the cells inside, and now it works like a charm.

While I was in there, I also decided to install bigger capacity 18650 cells to increase run time between charges.

Please only do this if you have experience with electronics, handling batteries, and soldering.

This video is just to show you how I replaced the cells in the battery from my Dyson and isn't meant to be a definitive guide. If you decide to replace the cells in your vacuum, do so at your own risk.
