I was really disappointed when I accidentally tore the charger for this dirt devil vacuum I got years ago, because it still works great! I went to dirt devil’s website to see that they no longer sold this replacement charger. I decided to take my chances with this purchase and I’m glad I did! The charger I got was exactly as the image showed and it was exactly like the original charger I got with the vacuum years ago. In the photos: the old (original) charger is on the left and has the torn cable and the new charger I purchased is on the right. Even the label stickers are exactly the same. As you can see in one of the photos, the charger cable is plugged in and connected and the light is blue so it works!I would like to point out, I’m pretty sure that this cable is only for this model which has been discontinued and may not work with other models. I took closeup photos of the cable connector for reference.
