Taking apart our (ev) lawn mower wasn't on my bingo card this morning. The good news is that it was just a faulty signal wire. The path for that wire is prone to failure, because it rubs underneath the handlebar when it folds. I made a cheap mod by removing a plastic shield and using a wire harness to help protect those wires. So I guess I improved performance by removing some weight? 🤣
I need help (first-world problem)! I want a robot lawn mower. I’ve read articles. They aren’t clear about one thing:
Does every robot lawn mower require a network connection to the company’s servers?
I would prefer to buy one that can’t be #Enshittified if the company goes under or just decides to “stop supporting” the equipment. Otherwise I’m just renting the equipment at their pleasure.
Thank you!!
