What’s Special About the Robot Floor Cleaner Lithium Battery?
The Robot Floor Cleaner Lithium Battery is a 14.8V Lithium-Polymer rechargeable power source for the robotzoo Beetle and Bug floor cleaners. The battery is an essential component for a robotic floor cleaner. The battery is intended to provide power sufficient to drive the device and sweep/vacuum dust and litter from the floor as the floor vac makes its way around a room.
They are a lithium polymer composition, which is light enough to be carried on-board the device, and powerful enough to drive the motors and provide sufficient suction for the vacuum fan.
These lightweight lithium polymer batteries need to be topped up in charge at least every couple of months to remain in good working condition. If they are allowed to drain below a certain threshold voltage, and then left that way for a period, then they will not be able to be charged back to their peak voltage again.
Most models of robotic floor cleaner will use the same type of rechargeable lithium backup battery, ie. 14.8V, 500-800 maH (around 10Wh) 4S-573040 (or similar) and, importantly, the same type of connector (XH2.54-3P). The batteries will fit into an enclosure which is usually around 20mm x 30mm x 50mm.
Replacing the batteries is usually easy to do. Just open the battery compartment underneath the device by removing the casing screws, and you will see the battery, secured in its enclosure. Remove the plastic XH2.54-3P connector from the main board and take the battery out. Reconnect the replacement battery and re-seal the casing with the screws. Try to ensure that you don’t have any screws left over!
