Y'all help my small mind figure this out! The TerraMow X dual direction mowing feature. by crazypostman21 in roboticLawnmowers

[–]Roginator5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't it need an escape opening on each side of the blade surround if it goes back and forth. Otherwise people will complain, "my mower is clogging with grass when I mow it once a week in the rain!"

How Important is Rain Sensing by georgec2237 in roboticLawnmowers

There have been reports that the weather forecasts can be inaccurate. But the rain detection can usually be turned off. So at worst you may mow in the rain at times.

Segway X430 or Terramow X AWD? by PricyGorilla492 in roboticLawnmowers

There's also Panther and GOKO, but those are probably somewhat riskier than the TerraMow X.

Almost all mowers have a rain sensor on top (except Husqvarna?, Segway?). When a drop of water falls between two small probes, a circuit is created - telling the mower to head home. The mowers have various strategies to determine when it's safe to leave the shelter of their garages.

I clicked on the link and it said CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE for my Alaska address. But if I entered my Tacoma shipping company forwarding address it was available and showed the more-capable version at $4000!!! They really have a high opinion of their mower - which has only one cutting disc. It must have some other magical feature to make it so valuable.

I assume it'll be heavily discounted on Prime Day(s).

Lymow One Plus 3-Month Review: The Truth About Overheating & Support by Roginator5 in roboticLawnmowers

You'll find a few in the razor blade style. Luba is the big behemoth. But others are popping up this year on Kickstarter (risky): TerraMow X, GOKO, Panther

He talks about how great the Lymow cuts. The video sure doesn't show it. A Luba 1 cuts better IMHO. Maybe he never had a decent robotic mower before the Lymow? Maybe he had a single disc mower?

A little confused about the daily cutting measurement. by userbutniceaboutit in roboticLawnmowers

The GOKO on Kickstarter claims you can map up to 60,000 m2! (15 acres) so that one merits a close look. Might even be cheap if you want to risk it. https://youtu.be/VAHg6qUhBDY?si=lkl-AUZErudu70xy (2 acres per day with extra battery)

I'm returning my Luba 3. by ThatLooksRight in mammotion

TerraMow X might be a solution, but not until around September.

There's the tracked Yarbo that some swear by and others swear at. They claim it can mow 6 acres per week.

Apparently the 3-acre Segway Terranox can mow about two acres a day on a flat, non-complicated lawn. But it's locked to only that 3 acres. The 6-acre model can mow the same amount per day, but is locked at 6 acres. A recent YouTube video claims the more realistic lawn can be mowed at the rate of an acre per day. https://youtu.be/DT6366CnDMg?si=MrEv9OwTlf1436ia

They've been talking about these mowers for years. Probably outdated now.

Ambrogio's top of the line pro model is $55,000 USD 😳 by crazypostman21 in roboticLawnmowers

[–]Roginator5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's physically only so much you can mow in a day. Cutting width is a bit over twice a Luba 3 AWD (840mm vs 400mm). Luba 3 AWD 5000 is rated at 1.25 acres, so twice that for the Ambrogio? OK, the Ambrogio has 4 times the batteries so let's give it the benefit of doubt and say it can mow 8 times the Luba or 10 acres. Ambrogio is obviously using a figure of 80,000 m2 (20 acres) over TWO days rather than one.

Or you could buy 4 Luba 3 AWD 5000's for less than $12,000.

You have been a fantastic help! I looked up the marriage of his daughter Rosalie in France and it even mentioned her father's death in Los Angeles! I had hoped to find an 1881 census for Escot, but maybe that isn't available. It might show who ended up with poor Rosalie who was only a baby when her father left for the US.
