An idea for all modules; opportunistic charging (i.e. head back to charge when Yarbo is physically close to the docking station). The idea here is to add another battery threshold above the “Recharge Battery Level”, which sets a range in which Yarbo should head back to charge when its close to the …

That’s a pretty interesting idea! Could be super useful and time saving.

Love this. I think it could be combined with some other recommendations like if it hits the recharge limit and there’s only a few mins left in the plan, then it will finish and then go recharge. Also, on these same lines, if it doesn’t have enough charge but only has a little bit left in the plan,…

That one I’ve noticed more often.

Thanks for the suggestion. This approach could definitely add more flexibility to the charging behavior and help Yarbo operate more efficiently. If more users express interest in this idea, I’ll be happy to pass it along to our product team for further consideration.

How are those 4 sidewalks working for you on the right side of your map. They all run independently? No cross up down one sidewalk and back on another? Any reverse run sidewalks?

Last time I ran my overlapping sidewalks, they all ran properly without any doing the weird backward thing. I need to adjust them some more for better coverage, but they seem to be working as-is for now. [IMG_8316]

Good idea. Maybe there should be a notification asking whether you want to confirm heading back to recharge.
