Bigger Bin for Roomba
With all those new floors in the basement, it was time to upgrade the collection bin for our Roomba. We have a 500-series model that allows for programable use. That means that we can tell it to go out and work at a set time each day and then come back to it's base to recharge. The only issue is that with the normal-sized bin, the robot would fill up in a week(ish). Cheerios, goldfish crackers, dust, dog hair and the like all add up fast.
With this new "AeroVac Upgrade Kit", not only do we get a much larger bin, I've seen some improvement in performance. The rollers are new and there's (apparently) better air-flow due to the new shaped/sized filters. I haven't figured out exactly how long the new bin can go (because I check it too often and thus empty it before it gets full), but in time we'll know the full results.
