It's a pity Roomba did not go down this road
This baby has no bumper bar just an array of radar sensors and led's It's great to watch it stop quarter inch from a chair leg.
All hair & dust goes into the bin (two brushes helped by a powerfull vacuum (no gear box) looks cool I call mine "Gort"
It has 12 nmh batteries but they have not been kept in a charged state.
and the unit keeps disconnecting prematurely from it's homebase
(after about 10 minutes) I keep shoving it back onto the base but after 10 minutes I have a green light & the "RBZX3202A" again leaves it's homebase It's an ex demo model I bought it via ebay.co.uk £50
a snip because it was listed as a used Robot Claner so nobody found it.
Do a google search on RBZX3202A to see video ...
Sorry this a bit fractured but it's 04:30 in the morning here in the UK & I need to get some sleep

Looks like the electrolux trilobite.
I can see why you have called him Gort, looks a bit like him from the front :) |

Wow a chinese trilobyte! What a bargain!
see here for more info
Would interested to see how you will get spares and how long it will last, but still, for £50 i think you have done really well! |
