Beatbot rates the Beatbot AquaSense for 2,260 sq ft. Its published floor-and-wall runtime covers about 1,212 sq ft of pool — a 2:1 pool about 49 ft long — at 13 sq ft a minute. The claim works out to a pool about 67 ft long. How this is worked out.

A specification not listed here is one Beatbot does not publish for this model. It is left blank rather than estimated or borrowed from a sibling.

Features

  • 2.5 h floor-and-wall runtime
  • 15 sensors with dual gyroscopes and ultrasonic
  • Returns to its start point
  • 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi app

What it does well

  • Beatbot publishes a floor-and-wall runtime for it, which it does not for the AquaSense 2
  • 20.5 lb, lighter than its successor
  • Tile is on its surface list
  • Returns to its start point at the end of a cycle

What it gives up

  • Same price as the AquaSense 2, which has a bigger battery and a longer warranty
  • 6,700 mAh, the smallest battery Beatbot publishes for any robot here
  • 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only, where the AquaSense 2 also joins 5 GHz networks

The two lists above come from the maker’s own specifications and this site’s arithmetic on them, not from owner reports. Where owner discussion has been read it appears in its own section below, so the two are never mistaken for each other.
