Battery Clamp B223-0814

A genuine Tacony OEM part shared across Tornado Roam 97300/Roam 97300C, Riccar R10CV, Simplicity S10CV/SC10CV, CleanMax Zoom ZM-800, the Battery Clamp (part# B223-0814) is an exact-fit replacement for the original. This is a shared Tacony OEM part — the same B223-0814 fits Tornado Roam 97300 and Roam 97300C; Riccar R10CV; Simplicity S10CV and SC10CV; CleanMax Zoom ZM-800.

On the Tornado Roam / 97300 / 97300C, the battery clamp locks the removable battery pack into its bay so it stays seated and connected during use while still allowing quick removal for charging or swapping. A solid clamp keeps the pack’s contacts mated for reliable power and prevents it from shifting as the machine is moved.

Replace the battery clamp if it is cracked, worn, or no longer holding the pack firmly, or if the battery works loose or loses contact during use. A failed clamp can cause intermittent power or let the pack fall out. Renewing it restores a secure, reliable battery mount.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the battery clamp do?

The battery clamp (part# B223-0814) is the retainer that holds the battery pack firmly seated so it cannot shift or lose electrical contact while you clean. A secure clamp is what keeps a cordless Roam from cutting out over bumps.

How do I know the battery clamp needs replacing?

If the battery rattles in its bay, drops connection, or will not stay seated, the clamp has cracked or lost its grip. Fitting a fresh B223-0814 restores a tight, reliable hold.

Can I replace the battery clamp myself?

Yes — it is a simple swap once the battery bay is open, needing only basic hand tools. It is a low-cost fix for an intermittent-power complaint that is often blamed on the battery itself.

Which vacuums use the battery clamp (part# B223-0814)?

It fits the Tornado Roam 97300 and 97300C — the Compatible Models list above shows every machine that shares it.
