No adjustments required. Remove the NiMh battery from Roomba, insert the Lithium NMC battery and your Roomba can start.
The advantages of this type of battery are enormous. After 800 charging cycles still 80% of the initial capacity. NiMh batteries often fail after only 200 cycles. The lifespan is 2 to 4 times longer than with standard NiMh batteries, and that for a very limited initial cost. We give a 12-month warranty on these Li-ion batteries. iRobot only gives a 6-month warranty on the original batteries.
Also fits for Scooba 450, but not for other Scooba models.
Capacity: 5200 mAh
Voltage: 14.4 V
Further advantages are:
- Minimum load loss, less than 1% per month, if not used. The self-discharge of NiMh batteries is often higher than 30% per month.
- No initial 16h charge cycle required.
- Various safeguards built in (against overcharging, over-discharging, too high temperatures, too high voltages, etc) which gives a higher reliability and safety.
- NiMh batteries often fail after several deep discharges. Because of the built-in protection, this cannot be done with these Li-ion batteries.
- The capacity of 5200 mAh means in practice that your Roomba with a full battery charge will be able to drive longer than the original battery with a capacity of 3000 mAh.
