Greetings
I have three Roombas...Silver , Blue and Red.
I marked all my batteries for identification.
No Matter which battery I use the Red will only run 50min on carpet where the silver and blue will always give me at least 75min.
I have two internal chargers and one external rapid charger.
I always switch the batteries around so that they all have a chance on the rapid charger.
For some reason the Red just won't stay up with the two originals.
I found some drag on the one large brush due to some binding on the yellow bearing but that has been filed and fixed.
Anyone else find the new discovery series more hungry than the originals? |

I've never looked at that before. Are you using all aps (yellow)batteries? I think the discos are a very little bit heavier :shock:
Things that make you go HMMMM! |
