iRobot Scooba experience

[XxDrAg0nxX]

Ok did something simple...

I stuck 2 wooden chopsticks into the hole in front

Marked off the floor level and snip it off...

Hope it works

UMMmm could the sensors be those 2 holes plugged by the chopsticks?

 

[ronnie]

since yours and mine similar pricing maybe only got 1 inside.

you also able to order from hsn.com direct?

Yeah, the US$209 offer one. Got someone in US to order for me.

The 2 sticks should not be affecting the sensors, anyway i've marked the sensors with a red circle each ...

Just a qns...you guys still leave the roomba to be charge 24x7 or off the charger after like 3hrs? I tried to off the charger but it seems that the batt do not hold the charge very well....

starting after i got the roomba, i switch if off after charging.
but dunno y after a few weeks, the docking station have some problem. it wont charge the roomba anymore. and they send me a new docking station.
after tat, i dont turn off the charger anymore. charging it 24/7

Unless u dont use yr Roomba daily, u r better off leaving it on the charger 24/7. Mine has auto scheduling so i leave it 24/7. Also, bear in mind that NiMh cells have relatively high self discharge. If u leave it off the charger too long, it may not have sufficient capacity for the next cleaning cycle. This is not like Scooba where u leave the battery on external charger 24/7 will greatly shorten the lifespan of the batt.

i dont leave it on charger 24x7. usually i will charge it a day or so before i need to use it. then used liao, leave it there until next time i need then charge again. realise that it does not hold charge well, so didnt want to fully charge and leave it at that state.
