Summer is finally here again. It is going to be 90 out this weekend and I have to get the lawn cut. It is time to seriously consider putting tech to work for me. The LB1200 Spyder by Kuyodo America just may be the robot lawnmower the doctor ordered.
The Spyder is the world’s first robot lawnmower that doesn’t use a perimeter wire to operate. Patented sensors actually ‘sense’ when the LawnBott Spyder is over the grass to cut, reversing direction when over walkways, curbs, patios, and mulched areas.
According to its website, all you do is set it down, turn it on, and walk away. It has 4 cutting disc blades to cut your lawn for up to 3.5 hours on a single charge using a Li-ion battery. This model is designed for yards up to up to 5,500 sq. ft. The LawnBott Spyder has 4WD to tackle slopes up to 27°. The manufacturer says the LawnBot uses up to $10 of electricity a season.
The robot lawnmower can be charged from your house electrical. No special re-charger is required and its code can be updated via the web.
