How long does a cleaning robot battery last?
Battery runtime varies significantly by model, cleaning mode, and battery capacity:
Typical Runtimes by Class:
- Compact Models: 2-4 hours (battery capacity 100-300 Wh)
- Mid-Range: 4-6 hours (300-600 Wh)
- Industrial Models: 6-10 hours (600-1,500 Wh)
Factors Affecting Runtime:
- Wet cleaning consumes more power than dry sweeping
- Higher speed reduces runtime
- Cold environments reduce battery capacity by 10-20%
- Lithium-ion batteries last 800-1,200 charge cycles (~3-5 years)
Charging Times:
- Standard charging: 3-6 hours
- Fast charging (supported models): 1.5-3 hours
- Some models support autonomous docking at the charging station
