At the risk of sounding really weird, I love to sit with my morning coffee and just watch Yarbo mow via the cameras. I particularly enjoy when it gets to some deeper grass and watching the wisps of micro clipping vapor pass through the beams of the work lights. It’s hypnotic and strangely relaxing.
sounds like a early morning coffee fetish … yes, it’s weird, but not that weird 
Just wait ‘till winter and you’re sitting in the house nice and warm watching Yarbo clear the snow off the driveway. It’s quite addictive to watch.
Till it gets stuck 
I’d much rather go rescue it then be out there doing the work myself. Last year, only had one rescue. It clipped a snow bank on return to charge and ate a huge amount of icy snow. Worked great other than that. That track slippage and recovery bug that caused it was eventually fixed too.
You are very lucky it works so well for you. A light fluffy snow mine works ok, but anything more than that and it will get stuck. Not if, it will, more like when will it get stuck, and where. Part of my issue is the crushed granite driveway, but yarbo claimed it would work on that surface in it’s promo videos.
Another part of the issue is run time vs charge time in the winter. Hopefully this winter with 2 snowblowers, it will be able to handle the storms better and keep up with the snowfalls.
Not to mention how it gets stuck on sidewalks all the time. It works fine with a few inches. Once you get a few feet on each side it gets stuck everytime it tries to reverse back. Having it turn around isn’t an option either.
I bet that is a big difference too, people who get lots of snow, vs people that live where it seldom snows. Snowbanks are a killer issue for yarbo.
Or how mine goes off the path it is snowblowing and rams into the corner of my concrete steps randomly and takes out the shear pins, if if the guard it on it smashes the crap out of it and then takes the shear pins out. My steps are not tall enough to activate the bumper. So it just plays bumper cars till something breaks. Not fun changing those pins in around zero weather.
On asphalt, so that makes it much easier. I can’t imagine trying to deal with gravel. That doesn’t work well if you can’t build up a hard pack or when the hard pack starts melting.
We typically get a few snows a year and they are gone within a day or two (usually). This year we had some record snow fall followed by ice on top of that. Yarbo was working that storm (Fern) throughout the duration of it. That snow and ice cap it left on top was with us for almost 3 weeks with some additional snow on top here and there.
We typically get the wet sticky snows vs the light and fluffy. My first year was a bit of a struggle. I didn’t fully understand how to tweak it, but I slowly got it figured out. My second year it was much better. I ceramic coated the second year and it really helped.
I wish the machine was far more smart to figure out the conditions and auto adjust. I assume we will get there in a few years, maybe. Right now, it takes a lot of tweaking and monitoring to get it dialed in for each specific storm because ours are never the same.
If it gets cold enough here for snow, I’ll have a lot more interesting things to think about and watch. Like freezing pipes since none of our pipes are insulated and have exterior exposure.
Nevertheless, I know what you mean and it would be very cool to watch the snowblower!
Maybe get one as a wood chipper? 
It works great for throwing rocks!
I can attest it’s tough on gravel until you get a pack down.
We are renting a house until we build and I have blacktop for the moment. Jacked outta my mind to drop to 0.00 inches on S1.
