Filtrite by Maytronics Robotic Cleaners (AUS)

[brendio]

I was looking through the junk mail the other day and saw some Robotic pool cleaners from Clark Rubber (Australia). The RC-2500 at $1099 looks reasonably priced, and there are a couple of other models as well (RC-4800 and RC-6000). They are listed as Filtrite by Maytronics. I know the Dolphin S200 is a popular unit stateside. I was wondering if these are rebadged versions of some other model.

B,

The RC-4800 appears to be a clone of the S200, but the RC-2500 does not.

Notice that the RC-4800 has vents on the sides of the top. This is where water shoots out and forces the cleaner along the tile line. The RC-2500 does not.

The cleaning cycle is 2 hours for the S200 and clones, the RC-2500 is 1.5 hours.

I assume the RC-2500 does not scrub the water line tile.

I can't tell in the pic, but I am not sure the RC-2500 has a basket filter like the S200 or if it has the much smaller old-style filter.

Thanks,

Jim R.
