Preparing Your Robotic Lawn Mower for Winter: Properly Storing the Battery, Charging Station, and RTK for the Winter
To me, winterizing a robotic lawn mower means more than just turning it off and storing it away. Using the ANTHBOT M9 PRO as an example, I’ll show you how I clean it, change the blades, and care for the battery so the robotic lawn mower can stay protected over the winter. I’ll also address the questions that come up every year: Does the charging station need to be dismantled? Does the RTK antenna stay outside? And when does the battery need to be recharged? I’ll explain my approach, highlight differences compared to other models, and show what I look out for when storing it for the winter and when…

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

Anthbot Genie robotic lawnmower in test: Perfect lawn mowing without cables?
A robotic mower without boundary wire, equipped with RTK navigation, GPS, camera and intuitive app control – that’s exactly what the Anthbot Genie 600 offers. In this article, I’ll show you how the model works in my garden, what you need to bear in mind when setting it up, setting it up and mapping it, and how the robot performs in everyday life. I will go into the scope of delivery, technical data, zone management, edge cutting, AI functions and firmware development. There are also comparisons, recommendations and honest feedback from the field.

ECOVACS GOAT A1600 RTK: The innovative robotic lawnmower without boundary wire in the test
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.
