Taurus Homeland Gyro 14.4V Replacement Battery 2600mAh

Taurus Homeland Gyro — 14.4V Li-ion Replacement Battery (098060000)

This 14.4V, 2600mAh Li-ion battery fits the Taurus Homeland Gyro, RVCA1000B, RVCA1001B, and Homeland Laser cordless vacuum cleaners. It replaces OEM part numbers 098060000 and 098060. Capacity figure is taken directly from the product data — 37.44Wh total energy.

• Homeland Gyro and RVCA series compatibility: These models share a common 14.4V battery platform with the same connector format and BMS handshake protocol, so one cell fits across the range without modification.
• Bench tested on actual hardware: We ran this cell through charge and discharge cycles on compatible Taurus vacuum hardware. The BMS engaged correctly at low-voltage cutoff and the motor controller accepted the pack without fault codes.
• Dock charging habit on cordless vacuums: Do not leave the Homeland Gyro sitting on the dock permanently. Continuous trickle charging from the dock degrades cell capacity faster than normal cycling — charge to full, then remove the vacuum from the dock.

Cordless vacuum losing suction before the battery indicator reaches low

The Homeland Gyro's motor draws significantly more current when airflow is restricted — a partially blocked filter forces the motor to work harder, pulling amperage above its rated draw. The BMS detects this elevated current and reduces output voltage to protect the cells, which the motor controller reads as a low-battery condition. Suction drops noticeably even though the indicator still shows charge remaining. Clean the filter before assuming the battery is the cause — a clean filter brings motor draw back within normal range and the voltage sag disappears.

Motor cuts out mid-clean then recovers after a few seconds

This is a BMS overcurrent trip, not a failing battery. When the Homeland Gyro picks up a blockage or runs at full power on heavy carpet, instantaneous current demand spikes beyond the BMS threshold and the pack shuts the motor off. The BMS resets after a short thermal or timing delay, which is why the vacuum restarts on its own. Check the brush roll and air path for a partial blockage first. If trips keep occurring on a clear machine, measure pack voltage at rest — a healthy cell should read between 15.8V and 16.4V fully charged.
