  • Lymow One in test: Robot mower without boundary wire with RTK navigation and chain drive

    A Lymow One robotic lawnmower with tank-like tracks sits on a well-manicured lawn, surrounded by green grass and some fuzzy bushes in the background. www.commaik.de

    The Lymow One robotic lawnmower is one of the most exciting developments in the field of robotic lawnmowers without a boundary wire. My test shows how far modern RTK navigation, VSLAM, a robust chain drive and a wide mowing deck can simplify work on large lawns. The focus is on performance, precision and off-road capability – characteristics that I was able to test extensively on my own property and another larger test area. The report summarizes all the important aspects: from design and scope of delivery, set-up, mapping and app control to mowing performance, cutting pattern, obstacle detection and practice on uneven terrain. In addition to the test, I provide…

  • Install 8kW diesel parking heater safely in the workshop & garage

    A man stands next to a mounted parking heater system with large pipes, wires, and controls—perfect for any workshop. Large text above reads, Diesel Heizung für die Werkstatt (Diesel heater for the workshop). www.commaik.de

    In this article, I show you how I heat my workshop efficiently, permanently and reliably with an 8 kW diesel parking heater from KROAK. I planned and implemented the complete installation of the diesel parking heater step by step – from safe exhaust gas routing to fuel supply and hot air distribution. It’s not just about technology, but also about safety, consumption, control via app and the question of whether heating oil can be an alternative to diesel. If you are looking for a workshop heater that also works at low temperatures, you will find all the details here.

    A robotic lawnmower without boundary wires can revolutionize lawn care – no more laying and repairing wires, just precise navigation with RTK technology. The ECOVACS GOAT A1600 RTK promises exactly that. After more than 10 years with the Gardena Sileno+, which was regularly slowed down by broken cables, we needed an alternative. In this test, I show how the GOAT A1600 RTK performs in practice: from installation and mapping to mowing quality and safety. Is the cordless robotic lawnmower really convincing? Here is the answer.
