Robotic Lawnmower Gets a Solar Upgrade

Filed in archive Green Gadgets by Chris Matier on October 24, 2008

I wish I as was rich enough to be lazy. I would love to have my house cleaned by an army of Roombas, my floors cleaned by Scoobas, and my lawn mowed by a Husqvarna Automower lawnmower robot. But alas, I have to vacuum, mop, and push my own darned lawnmower.

These automatic chore robots are very cool, and in the case of the Husqvarna Automower, they work quite well. They traipse about your yard while constantly mowing, and they turn around when they reach a buried boundary cable that is buried at the edge of your yard. The only real cost, besides the actual unit, is was electricity. That has now changed since the Automower has gone solar.

The mower features a rooftop solar panel that constantly charges the onboard batteries, so now it is emission free, energy independent, silent, and robotic. If it ever decides to turn its 20 inch cutting blade towards its owners, were all in danger. But for now, the Husqvarna Automower is just a darn fine chore robot that will set you back about $3000.
