Shark AV752, at mAh2,500
has more battery power than the iRobot Roomba i3 Evo with a difference of
A bigger capacity usually means longer battery life which can be beneficial if you have a large room or if you would like the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles without frequent interruptions to recharge.
The operating time of the iRobot Roomba i3 Evo refers to the time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single charge before it needs to return to its charging dock for recharging. iRobot Roomba i3 Evo's operating time is 1.5h
The Shark AV752, at 2h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba i3 Evo with a difference of 0.5h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals. iRobot Roomba i3 Evo has a charge time of 2h, the charge time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the amount of time it takes for the vacuum's battery to recharge fully after it has been depleted during a cleaning cycle.
Shark AV752, at 4h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba i3 Evo by 2h. Charge time is an important factor to consider when choosing a robot vacuum, since it determines how long you'll need to wait before the vacuum is ready for its next cleaning cycle.
