NewRoombaInTown writes – “The battery in my Roomba died and as I was searching around for Roomba information I discovered that the Roomba battery can be opened up and the contents can be replaced for less money than buying a new battery. Another positive side effect is the new batteries will last longer than the originals.”Link.

And… In other Roomba news, if you’re using a Bluetooth controller to write/mod/control your robot, the folks over at MyRoomBud have a “personality” application. So, if you dress your bot with one of their kid made outfits, you can use their app to make it, well, tiger-like before it cleans the place…. Link.
