The Hobo commented on AmazonBasics 12-Pack Rechargeable NiMH Batteries: AAA 800mAh or AA 2000mAh $19.90 + Del ($0 with Prime/ $59 Spend) @ Amazon AU
Shame nobody sells a mixed pack. I'd like a 10AA+10AAA or similar rather than 20 of each which is overkill considering I already have some.

The screen is over-rated in my opinion, I barely use/notice it.

Hard wood floors (or any hard floor) doesn't require much suction. You only need the massive suction when using it on carpet.
