Product: Charging Base for 500 / 600 / 700 / 800 / 900 Series Key benefits Reliable charging that protects battery life: Intelligent charging management extends the cycle life of robot batteries and keeps runtime consistent over many charge cycles. Stable, uninterrupted contact: Goldplated charging contacts provide conductivity and a dependable connection for consistent charging sessions. Physically robust docking: The weighted, stable base design prevents tipping and maintains alignment even with light collisions during recharge, reducing failed docks and interrupted charge cycles. Broad compatibility: Designed specifically for 500, 600, 700, 800 and 900 Series robots, allowing straightforward replacement or additional docking stations for the same model families. What it does (function and performance) Automatically charges compatible robots when they dock, using an intelligent charging system to manage charge cycles and help preserve battery health. Goldplated contacts reduce resistance and the likelihood of intermittent connections, ensuring a steady flow of power during each recharge. The weighted base provides a low center of gravity so the station remains in place and aligned with the robot even in traffic areas or when bumped lightly. Materials and design highlights Charging contacts: goldplated for improved conductivity and reliable electrical contact. Base: weighted, stable construction to resist movement and maintain proper docking alignment. Intended fit: engineered to match the docking interface and dimensions used by the 500/600/700/800/900 Series robots. Practical applications / use scenarios Home with pets and children: Place the charging base in a hallway or corner where light bumps are common. The weighted design prevents misalignment after minor collisions, and intelligent charging helps maintain battery longevity despite frequent shortcharge cycles. Office or commercial space: Use as a dedicated docking station for daily cleaning schedules. Goldplated contacts and intelligent charging reduce downtime and keep robot runtime predictable across repeated shifts. Multirobot operations or backup dock: Install additional bases in different rooms or floors to minimize travel time for the robot and ensure stable, consistent charging wherever it returns. What to expect Stable, repeatable docking and charging for 500–900 Series robots. Improved longterm battery performance through controlled, intelligent charging. Reliable electrical connection via goldplated contacts and a base that resists displacement from light impacts. Compatibility Specifically compatible with 500, 600, 700, 800 and 900 Series robots.
