The battery is the one component every humanoid will need replaced — typically after 500–1,000 charge cycles, or 1–2 years of daily use. Symptoms creep up gradually: shorter runtimes, shutdowns under load despite showing charge, longer charge times. A swollen pack is a safety issue, not a maintenance item — stop using it immediately.
A battery service visit covers health diagnostics (capacity testing against spec), safe removal and replacement with a revision-matched pack, BMS handshake verification, and proper disposal of the old pack. Technicians also check the charging setup — bad charging habits kill packs early, and a good tech will tell you what to change.
Never put lithium packs in household trash, and never let an untrained person open one. If your robot's runtime has dropped more than 30% from spec, it's time.

Roughly 500–1,000 full charge cycles — for a daily-use robot, expect noticeable degradation within 1–2 years. Runtime per charge is typically 1–3 hours depending on model and workload.
It's the riskiest component to go third-party on: wrong voltage, missing BMS communication, or poor cells can damage the robot or create a fire hazard. OEM packs are strongly recommended.
Safe removal, terminal taping, and drop-off at a battery recycler — most electronics retailers and municipal hazardous-waste programs accept them.
