The Aerovac bin has arrived at Borderlinx. I have PMed those interested with the total cost.

All reserved. BTW, it is black color.

so how much per bin with shipping?

just to confirm,. the irobot power supply is 110v, there is no auto switch to upto 240v ?

If it is bought from US, it is 110v...unless bought locally, then you will have the 240v....in any case, you can use a step down transformer or get some of the bros here to convert for you.

For those interested another group buy, it is SGD73 per set. The shipped weight is almost 7kg. The box must be huge. I cannot believe even with 4 sets, each set cost SGD19 for shipping. Previously I thought it could be done for around SGD15 per set.

I've been wanting to get an irobot since the day floor cleaning was allocated to me!

should I buy one from US and get it shipped here? - anyone know how much is the shipment?

seems like something had to be done to the voltage if I get from US?

Anything else I need to take note of?

Can I use the Bin with a normal 530 roomba? Its just the Bin only right?

 

[Jubooo]

It is compatible with all 500 series roomba.

It depends on how the seller pack it. It can range from $55-$100 USD.

Yes. It works with 500 series. Actually there is a vacuum motor inside if I am not wrong.

Btw the 4 sets aerovac bin arrived already. Those PMed me will get SMS from me tonight about the collection.

thanks for your reply. How about the voltage thingy? I dont think I am able to figure out and modify myself.

 

[Jubooo]

You can contact me later for the modification. I had done almost 200 mods by now. I also have the roomba 560 for sale if you want. Do your calculation & if you don't want the hassle to bring in yourself, feel free to contact me at 81254240.

The box iRobot used can hold up to 9 aerovac bins. Should order more so the saving will be better.

Just cleaned 1 room with aerovac bin. amazing! no fur or hair wrapping around the gear/brush area. simply remove the bin and pour the rubbish. that's it for the cleaning. now i schedule my roomba to run everyday. hopefully only need to clean brushes once a week. saved me a lot of work. A must buy for pet owners!

 

[tekster]

regarding the sidebrush,

are you guys using 3arm or 6arm? any difference in performance? i can't find the 6arm sidebrush on irobot website, anyone got any idea why?

 

[Jubooo]

3 arm is the new design. Supposely to reduce resistance as to lessen the battery's load. As to how far it can lessen, it's still a question.

 

[tekster]

i see. thought it'll be cleaner with more brushes.

 

[congyuan]

I will be doing another order (4 sets Aerovac Bin) this monday coz there are still a few indicate interests. Price will be similar to this SGD73. Also will be ordering replacement filters. we can share the filters coz 1 pack has 3 filters.

PM me if interested. This will be my last order. No more after this.

Srry, but do note that you can get a brand new Roomba at less than that price direct from US.
