I did originally think the track was from it running on the floor and running parallel to the wall, but I'm nearly certain instead it is where the robot impacts the wall and then starts trying to climb, with the back of the tracks being the only point of contact on the floor until it gets...

My pool/liner/Dolphin S300i are all just coming up on 4.5 years old. Overall the Dolphin has done its thing admirably, but last summer or possibly even the year prior we started to see it leaving a consistent wear track around the shallow end where the wall meets the floor at a 90 degree angle...

Thanks. Not sure what I’ll do with that info but I wanted to know haha. The pool in question is 1000 miles away but I’ll be there this weekend; believe she said it also has a pinhole leak (not at a joint/fitting) so it will likely need replaced I’m sure, just trying to educate myself a bit to...

Here’s another angle which shows the whole setup.

Helping someone out after a death in the family, just trying to get a grasp of what they have so I can point them to appropriate resources for help. This thing is an antique, but what is it? And is the housing fiberglass or actual metal? She did say it has what appears to be surface rust so...

So, anyone opened a Microbrite repair shop yet? :D Because my gosh these things are awful.

Well dang. But that does make sense Jim, kind of figured it had to be drawing water in if it is able to push water out. I just don’t have a direct comparison to know if I should feel suction with the palm of my hand or not…. may need to invite myself for a swim at a friend’s house. As for the...

As I understand it these robots have a drive motor and a suction motor, but I can’t seem to find those parts separately and instead have only seen a “motor unit” part for purchase. Is it safe to assume both motors are included in the unit? My robot has had issues for a while now that we suspect...

Yeah, my follow-up question was going to be if I got a couple of duds or if 2.5-3 years is really about all I can expect if I want to replace them. We did have a lightning incident earlier in the summer that got my SWCG control board and my Dolphin power supply (I think), so it's possible that...
