Ecovacs claims its fast-charging robovac can clean nonstop

Ecovacs’ latest mopping robovac may not need to take charging breaks while cleaning your home. The company says its new Deebot X11 Omnicyclone uses GaN-enabled fast charging to power up every time it returns to its base station for mop rinses, allowing it to keep cleaning without stopping to charge.

The X11 Omnicyclone robovac comes with 19,500Pa of suction power and an upgraded roller mop that extends up to 15mm to reach corners. It’s capable of traversing thresholds, rugs, doorframes, and uneven surfaces using a 4WD system with “mechanical climbing levers” that automatically engage when it detects flooring changes. Ecovacs says the robovac can “reliably” handle up to 4cm shifts, while its mop lifts up to 10mm.

The robovac’s base station ditches disposable dust bags for an auto-empty technology that “delivers consistent suction and multi-stage filtration,” according to Ecovacs. It’s also capable of cleaning the nylon mop roller with hot water, as well as drying it.

The Deebot X11 Omnicyclone robovac costs $1,499 and is available for purchase on Ecovacs’ website and Amazon in the US and Canada.
