I've had my mower (RL1000) for a while but I'm now experiencing charging and docking problems so excuse my ignorance if this doesn't make sense since I'm new...
Well, you can do 6 in series, that's great. As the ratio of total LED voltage to resistor drop increases, the losses and heat in the resistor go down, but it...
I found the second number you recommended for like $.44 each from Mouser. They are 75 mA, 3.3 V giving a resistor of 160 ohms total or since I dont have...
More resistance. (25.2v batt voltage - 4x 3.3v )=12v across the resistor 12v/250 ohms=48mA. The LED has a nominal forward current of 20mA. 48mA probably...
Sorry Danny...I only read a little ways into the Wiki. I was confused as to who wrote the first part. I see now that you used a bunch of the minidip LEDs...
Oh yeah... those BestHongKong LEDs are also white LEDs, which are really not a good choice since most of the light will be stopped by the color filter. You...
I didn't recommend the BestHongKong LEDs. I greatly preferred the 4-pin LED packages below that, they're much more capable of high power. I used two strings...
I bought 10 LEDs delivered for $7.50 from besthongkong as defined by Danny. I intend to destroy the lamp to get the socket and solder two resistors (I do not...

As Follows: Remove the Power Pack from the Robomow. Insert a flat screwdriver into the notch of the lamp cover and lift. Be cautious not to pinch or damage the...
My RL-800 was running for about 2 years without the bulb. There was no negative effect on the system. Finally I got 10 pieces of bulbs on ebay. I got them for...
I have the RL850 so I had knobby tires when I bought the unit. I wore those things down pretty good over a 5 year period and that's why I made the purchase...
The lamp is a 24-volt bulb and I have not been able to find a replacement. My RL-1000 has been running since early summer without the bulb with no known...
The lamp lens just prys off to expose the bulb, if I recall correctly. No need to remove the top "shell". I never found a replacement bulb so I just ran mine...
On my Robomow RL1000 last summer, I had the message "Replace Lamp". I didn't attend to replacing it then, but am wondering if I should attend to it now. As I...
The amps will be the same; its the hours in the increased amnpHours that will increase. WBob ... From: jeff To: RoboMower@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday,...
The battery has higher capacity, but this does not change the amps of current drawn. The amps depend entirely on the MOWER load, not the battery. There is no...
I'm getting some TD22-12s. What gauge and type wire should I use since this are higher amps? Figured I'd do new wires since the ends need a different connector...
Speaking of spring deals and accessories for the Robomower, I have a brand new set of Robomower knobby tires I'd like to sell. I purchased these last year and...
Crud, Got a cancellation notice on my order for 3 sets :( No ETA on availablility. Tim ... _________________________________________________________________ ...
Danger Will Robinson!! The descriptions in the pages linked appear to be for a single low cut blade...as in one of the blades out of the 3-blade set. There...
A good price for blades, but the site has a $100 minimum order, so you're in for 3 sets. The shipping is high too @ $26 and change for 3 sets to Michigan....
That reminds me. I need to wake the Romomowers from their deep sleep, clean out the cobwebs, and see if they need any parts (AKA blades, etc...). Here are...
Ron at batteryspec gave me a small discount on TR22-12s if interested (51.80). Also Probotics.com has blades at about $60 and no shipping costs. Cheapest I...
Well, I know there's a slew of state-by-state recycling laws that allow or require one of two things: A nonrefundable state recycling fee with every battery...
