Lymow One Plus in test: RTK robot mower for large areas & difficult terrain
In the Lymow One Plus test, I show how this robotic lawnmower performs in practice without a boundary wire on a large and demanding area. With RTK navigation, chain drive, 45° incline and a cutting width of 40 cm, the Lymow takes a significantly different approach to classic robotic mowers. I tested the new Lymow One Plus extensively and compared it directly with the Lymow One. The focus is on performance, navigation, off-road capability and the question of whether this system is really worthwhile for large plots of land. The article provides a detailed insight into the technology, set-up, practical test and my experiences – including strengths, weaknesses and a…

I go into detail about the differences between RLN36, RLN16-410, RLN8-410 and RLN12W, explain the maximum hard disk size per model, show the correct choice of surveillance HDD and document the complete installation including formatting and storage management. I also explain how an NVR works with multiple HDDs and…
