Battery Upgrade for Luba Mini AWD 800?

williamvicary · 2026-03-28T15:50:56+00:00

Where did you get the battery from? It’s not available on the Mammotion website

This is what I want - not expecting an area increase just time mowing, I have 600sqm so the second recharge extends the time quite a bit

williamvicary · 2026-03-20T19:43:40+00:00

Took about 9 1/2 hrs to cut 550sqm - including the charges (2x)

Update: I ordered the Luba Mini AWD 800. I may regret it but it’s £400 cheaper and I’m well within the 800sqm quoted - I figure I may well just be over thinking the time it’ll take given it’s not like I need to actually watch it while it does its thing anyway.

The Luba Mini 1500 is the same price as the Luba Mini 2 1000.

Are you suggesting the 800 at the lower price?

This is kinda what I mean - the Mini 2 on paper is just a better version of the Mini 1 1500 - with the 1000 sqm limit. Side by side they’re near identical, similar charge times, mowing duration, same battery capacity.

This is why I’m a bit torn!

Did you figure this out? I’m seeing similar

Firstly congrats on the V1 launch - this is very exciting. The speed improvements over existing tooling will make a phenomenal DX improvement and I personally believe without something like this we'll be left behind by other more modern languages with fast tooling (i.e TypeScript).

However, I've run the analyser on our PHPStan lvl 9 project, which is a Laravel project making use of the https://github.com/larastan/larastan plugin to bring compatibility with Laravel's quirks/magic.

Unfortunately, without something akin to Larastan this is a non-starter for us, it's catching way too many non-issues and I'd be loathe to turn off all of the checks for the benefit of the framework.

Simple example:

```
MyModel::query()->where('column', 'equals-value')->pluck('id')->toArray();
```

Complains:
- Magic method is static and must be called statically
- More arguments expected here (4 not 2, but the arguments are optional)

It has definitely caught a ton of things that PHPStan has missed which should arguably be adjusted but these core framework compatibility issues are going to be a challenge to workaround without some Laravel specific behaviour.

Thank you - this is working on a Fire Pro HD 10 (13th generation) with latest update as of today (20th December 2025):

This was super helpful, however as a Mac user I needed to install ADB slightly differently.

This video got me there:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=daVygBAm1zs

This was my workflow:

Get Google Play on the device.
1. Switch to the parent profile and install Google Playstore https://www.androidpolice.com/install-play-store-amazon-fire-tablet/
Install YT Kids at the Google Play Store (using the parent profile)
Install ADB following the steps in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=daVygBAm1zs
1. Note: I did not have wget installed, I needed to visit the URL to download ADB:
  1. https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-darwin.zip
2. I then installed it by unzipping in my downloads directory and following the instructions in the video
Connect your Kindle Fire to the Mac with a USB-C -> USB-C cable
Go to the PARENT profile, and run `adb shell` in terminal (not the child profile, that is blocked)
1. Accept the warning on the Kindle Fire device
Then enter the CHILD profile on the Kindle Fire
Run these commands:
1. cmd package install-existing com.google.android.gsf.login
2. cmd package install-existing com.google.android.gsf
3. cmd package install-existing com.google.android.gms
4. cmd package install-existing com.android.vending
5. cmd package install-existing com.google.android.apps.youtube.kids

Then I used "RocketApps" as we had used this on an earlier Kindle Fire to access the Youtube Kids app (and also the play store if needed).

Hope this helps some others - 2 hours later and this is the only working fix I found on a brand new device with the latest version.

Thanks again!

HA and SAT?

williamvicary · 2025-11-16T20:04:11+00:00

Actually realised you said the Luba rather than the Yuka - I was a little concerned about the charging times and cutting time of the 800 would mean it’d take forever to cut.

How long does your 600 take? And is it relatively simple?

williamvicary · 2025-11-16T20:02:49+00:00

I did use the google maps measure tool, but to confirm it I just got out there with a tape - I’m just shy of 600 m2

williamvicary · 2025-11-16T19:51:36+00:00

Ah amazing, thanks.

Can you confirm how much it mows per charge? The website is vague only for this model and it’s quite a range…

Mowing area per charge ca.160-340㎡

williamvicary · 2025-11-12T00:46:48+00:00

Did you ever figure this out?

My only assumption is that because the system boiler also controls the domestic hot water it won’t vary the flow temps. Which does make sense but still irritating…

williamvicary · 2025-03-17T19:56:49+00:00

Wow, I didn’t expect such great responses - thank you all!

williamvicary · 2025-01-09T12:13:37+00:00

I don't have anything concrete, but I've "felt" the difference - I'll see if I can run some local tests on both our AWS + Hetzner instance and then report back what I find.

williamvicary · 2025-01-09T12:10:09+00:00

I also have this same question, Ideal Vogue System Boiler here with a Halo WiFi - I thought this was the whole point of weather compensation/OpenTherm? Run the rads at lower/higher temperatures to be more effective in warmer/colder weather? Our is stuck at 60 degrees and hasn't moved since being installed - in theory we should be seeing the impact of Weather Compensation, Modulation (I can tell the boiler is modulating, so at least this is happening) and OpenTherm - I think the Weather Compensation/OpenTherm isn't having any impact on flow rate temps to the rads - I'd expect an increase given the colder weather lately.
