Hi all,
The battery on my 720 will not hold it's charge and seems to last no more than 10 mins,
Is there an answer to this problem, can they be replaced ?

Have a search on the forum this has been discussed very thoroughly many times before all the answers are there.

Mike Alder's instructions for changing the battery start half-way down this page. Do pay attention to his warnings though.

No, you won`t lose any data with a flat battery.

Changing a battery requires a modicum of expertise, (which was beyond me), so I had it changed professionally locally at a cost of £25. Now all is back to normal.

Hi all........and thanks for your help

Reading how to replace the battery looks like one of them things that may go ok but also can go pear shaped and land up having to get a new sat nav, so I may send it here.

Those were the people that fitted the new batteryi n my 920; recommended.

As I was near, I was able to drop it in and save postage.

I sent mine there for a battery and had it back in 3 working days. I could have paid extra to have it back by return.
