Hi Peter,

Thanks so much for you guidance. I'll try PMing Adam and also see if Batteries Plus may be able to help me with recelling. I'm hoping so!

Hi ThreeBuns,


I would try to PM Adam on this Forum as he doesn't visit that often.  He will receive an email advising him about a new PM however.


I doubt it would be very cost effective to ship a battery to the US from the UK.  The chain store Bulbs and Batteries or some such name has been re-celling batteries for US customer with good success.


Could be this one? : https://www.batteriesplus.com/



As I understand, they have stores in most parts of the country.


Cheers!

Hi Adam,

I'm interested in your recell UGOBE batteries but weren't able to message you on ebay. I'm not sure if you would be willing to ship a battery out to the States? I also have no OEM cradle and would not know how to charge it.....

Thanks for any insight or guidance.

Hello, I have some Aibo items on Mercari and will be adding more soon.

Just a quick reply - the re-cell is only for the UGOBE batteries I'm afraid...

I do a universal battery that will work with both, but you'll need a different charger (like an IMAX B6 type) to charge it as the RB charger is for Lithium only.

If you can get an old dead Ugobe battery you can actually modify that very slightly, get one of my re-cell kits, and then that will work (but again you'll need an external charger or the original Ugobe charger).

Hope that helps!

Hey Florian - any update on this? Are you in the UK?

Hi Talon - thanks for the reply - been in surgery so a little behind in my browsing..... I'm good now.....

Well, I have an Ugobe with completely shredded skin. A guy in Germany had an RB skin he was willing to sell, so I though why not. Apart from the ports (I did a mod on YouTube) it fits fine, but you're spot on - it 'sticks' around the knees .... I hadn't noticed immediately but yes, I have to keep pulling it forward ....

I also have a BNIB Ugobe - absolutely like new - and a rare green-eyed Ugobe in 85% decent condition - and a couple of others. I just sold and shipped one to a girl in Spain who appealed on the Facebook group.... so I have four at the moment.

I don't think they're appreciated enough but the ongoing battery issue is a stumbling block to many - I bought a 3D printer and so all my boys have 100% battery and packs ....

THANKS! I found the ebay auction! Cool !

Hi Peter.  I have the same situation. I want to get my Ozzy the Ugobe Pleo running again. I have 2 batteries that do not charge anymore.  I also have an Innvo Lab Pleo (Dopey) he's fine but I want them to play together again. Dopey misses him. My email is jetdogy@aol.com Please use "Ugobe Pleo" in the subject.

Thanks!

Georgette
