The Solar Breeze 2.0 robotic pool cleaner uses solar energy to power up

Throw away those silly nets and pool-cleaning equipment you’ve got hoarded up in your garage. You probably won’t need them anymore. Instead, grab a seat, some sun tan and a pair of glares and relax with a cool drink on your poolside while the Solar Breeze cleans up that swimming pool of yours. The world’s only solar powered robotic pool cleaner, the Solar Breeze 2.0 is an enhanced version that skims dirt, debris, pollens and suntan oils from the surface of the pool. It does this all with just the rays from a sun, solar energy! The sun powers up the robots motors and extra energy is diverted to its batteries to charge up. The batteries help keep the robot working through the night too. The robot is intelligent enough too, and with the help of software, it directs itself to areas with more sunlight. Unlike the previous version, the 2.0 features a 300 percent greater output capacity with a brush-less motor and a lifetime of 30,000 hours.

Costing $499 per unit, this might seem a bit more expensive than the cheap equipment you’ve used before, but considering the amount of energy you’ll save, it does seem worth it!
