Don;t waste your money on Maytronics Dolpin M5 Liberty. It is way too expensive and unreliable. When it worked, it is great and cleaned the pool well, but, it is also fairly heavy to put and remove from the pool. It is NOT designed to stay in the pool all the time. If you are determined to get...

An update: I sent my LIBerty to Maytronics after they approved an RMA. The first week it got there nothing happened as they were in the mids of a week long inventory. I waited another week, and turned out they misplaced it in their warehouse but managed to find it. So 3 weeks later it was fixed...

Re: Dolphin power supply got rained on and shorted out. Now. For what it's worth, my Dolphin Liberty power supply/charger is completely encapsulated by a white/milky colored and solidified casting stuff, thus not a single electronic component is visible, thus would be somewhat water resistant.

It seemed to me that your filter is larger than needed for your pool size, however, in this case I am of the opinion that bigger is better for these reasons: 1. Time between cleaning your filter elements will be much longer - meaning less work for you 2. Your pump motor don't have to work as...

Sorry, you're right, it is probably longer. I just glibly wrote 6' because my pool is 6' deep and I know that there is slack there, so perhaps it is longer. The manual did say that I can order a longer cord, if needed.

As mpnet posted, the Liberty has a floating pod on a 6' blue cord (just like your wired M4) connected to the cleaner. This pod also contain the chip/circuitry/antenna that respond to the remote control unit. The pod comes with a charging plug cap so water does not get to the contact pins. The...

I'm not quite ready to concede on that. Maytronics did not offer to fix it for a fee yet, and if they do I wonder how much they would charge considering that their list price for the Liberty is about $2500. Good news. It seemed that Maytronics has changed their mind and perhaps decided to...

After fully charging the battery today, it will not turn on. I then disconnect and reconnect the 4-pin connector inside the pod. The unit the worked normal. I can turn on or off at will. Placed the cleaner in the pool and it cleaned the pool for a complete cycle then it shuts off on its own...

Charging (orange LED) when I went to bed last night. This morning it was fully charged (green LED). I then power the charger off, disconnect the charging cable (not the AC cable), press the pod power button, AND, nothing happened (no pod flashing LEDs as expected). Reconnect everything, press...

Howdy Laura. Please clarify: when you mentioned plugging the battery power cord to the wall, I assume you meant the battery charger? The battery power cord have two ends. One end goes to the Li-Ion battery pack inside the pool cleaner unit and the other end goes to the floating pod. this cord...

Hi Laura, Maytronics (true to their warning , saw it after I bought it) WILL NOT honor any warranty since I bought my brand spanking new Liberty from the internet. They let me register it, but no support. I can get my Liberty to work if I opened up the pod, disconnect the 4-wire connector from...

Ika674, are you still in this forum? I recently bought an M5 Liberty. It was brand new, but bought via Craigslist, thus Maytronics will not honor ANY warranty. My unit is broken now after working for 4 times. Refused to turn on, and when connected to the charger it says "No Connection". Do you...
