measures less in height than the iRobot Roomba i3 with a difference of 13.3mm.
When choosing a robot vacuum, make sure that the robot vacuum can go under the furniture and navigate effectively in your living space without getting stuck or causing damage. The battery power of a robot vacuum cleaner is important as it determines how long the vacuum can operate on a single charge. It is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba i3's battery power is 1,800mAh
The Tikom G8000 Pro, at mAh2,600
has more battery power than the iRobot Roomba i3 with a difference of
A bigger capacity implies longer battery life which can be of advantage if you have a large home or if you prefer the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles with fewer interruptions to recharge.
The operating time of the iRobot Roomba i3 refers to the time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single charge before it needs to be recharged. iRobot Roomba i3's operating time is 1.25h
Tikom G8000 Pro, at 2h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba i3 with a difference of 0.75h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals. iRobot Roomba i3 has a charge time of 5h, 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.
The Tikom G8000 Pro, at 5h
has the same charge time as the iRobot Roomba i3. Charge time is an important factor to consider when choosing a robot vacuum, as it determines how long you'll need to wait before the vacuum begins its next cleaning cycle.
