Re: J7(+) Vacuum Everywhere - deciding on rooms itself
I have a i5 with the same issue. I just leave it on clean everywhere as it gets lost. By it skipping rooms did you set a cleaning order?

Checked docking station and charger put out approximately 22V just fine. When measuring the pins where the battery co...

Re: Please help make list of all Scooba mods
I'll save you the bother on the 230. I think they were made as a throw away bot once they broke. They do not appear to be very fixable. They don't have the rotary brush and the initial vacuum stage. They basically lay down water, run over the area with a bristle brush and suck up the water. They ar...

I believe the Scooba leaving a lot of water can be in part from a blockage in the tube running through the tank from the Dry Vacuum port to the Filter port. I have cleaned this tube out with a 1/2" pipe brush at least 18 inches long. (A 5/8" brush might work better.) Stick the brush down ...
