Lymow and Fall

Think about getting the lymow. How will this handle leaves in the fall? Will it see them as obstacles and try to avoid them or stop all together? Once October/November comes around, it's a losing battle to keep up with leaves, at least on my property. Will the mower become useless?

How to skip scheduled mow?

Been searching everywhere for an answer to this and I’m coming up blank so maybe it’s not an option but I’m hoping there’s an obvious button somewhere that I’m just not seeing.

I have my Lymow scheduled to go out every other day at 4pm but it’s currently raining and I don’t want it to go out this afternoon because even if it stops the grass will be too wet. I can go into the schedule and disable the task, but then I have to remember to turn it back on again after - it feels like there should be a way to just skip the current instance while leaving the ongoing schedule in place. Am I missing a button somewhere to do that?

Navigation Issues

Hi,

So after my Original Lymow one's Hub motor mount Broke and i got a replacement One Plus after paying up the price gap...

I am left with a "working" mower that now has Navigation issues the Original One never had (same RTK placement but the Zones were mapped new to make shure they are accurate.

Gps Accurracy gets really bad up to 34m ... on that area my first One hat 0,02m accurracy.

It's leaving the mowing zones for over 6m and drives on the public road, last night i was lucky enough to be watching as it nearly drowned itself in a small river on the side of my Property...

I contacted support let's see how it goes for a second time....

I was lucky and got my replacement mower after 2 weeks the first time.

Ps:

If anyone needs Lymoe One Blades and is in the EU, i got 3 sets for my Package deal and they arrived after i sent the defective Mower back, i'll give you a good price.

Lymow One Plus vs Eufy E18 - Detailed Comparison - Which One Is Worth The Investment?

After owning the Lymow One Plus for about 6 weeks now, ontop of the Eufy E18 I've owned since last April...I wanted to provide a detailed look at each mower, side-by-side.

Given I'm no longer a novice in this world and know what you should expect from a robotic mower, I cover all the must-haves, pros, cons, and which one is worth the investment ($1,500 vs $3,000).

I've gotten more savvy with screen recording, so you can see the app user interface while I demonstrate the mower cutting my backyard. Spent a great deal of time diving into all the features, which ones you should pay attention to...and best practices for ideal results with each mower.

Lastly, I've got some cool drone footage from my backyard demonstrating the cut patterns and quality for each mower, which may be the ultimate deciding factor for those of you on the fence.

Yes, I do believe you need a backup mower if you travel a bunch, since the Lymow One Plus is unreliable if it gets stuck or out of bounds somewhere...you won't be able to navigate home and will be screwed with an overgrown lawn by the time you get home...hence my reason for keeping the E18 for now.

I think i'll do a video filming the Lymow One Plus cutting some tall weeds/grass next time. Let me know what other content you guys want to see, and thanks for the support as always!

My Lymow journey may be over

Man, I loved my Lymow One (Robbie) for a while. But now that spring is fully here, I’m afraid my time with it may be done. Not so much a shortcoming of the mower, but of my yard. I have heavy tree cover (gigantic oaks) and it just constantly loses its GPS signal and goes off course. I just had to retrieve it from the road a bit ago. Ended up almost in the woods last week (maybe 20 ft out of bounds beside an out building). If I had a perfect yard with no trees, it might be a different story. I used it in the fall and early spring (bare trees) and it was pretty consistent. But in the late spring/summer, it’s looking like it will be an expensive paperweight.

Pretty bummed.

Beyond pissed at the “mandatory”update

So lymo you’re gonna make it so I can’t use my Lymow OnePlus until I update the firmware? Can you guarantee that you actually tested the firmware this time and it’s not going to disable or severely impact my more or even brick it?What happens if that happens why don’t you tell me that while I sit there and look at my useless mower that I can’t use unless I update it all of a sudden whose idea was this? I paid you guys well over $3000 for this now brick in my garage thanks there is a reason why I didn’t update the firmware because of people having problems with your damn firmware because you can’t do proper testing.

Any other sensors?

My Lymow works flawlessly covering many acres staying in bounds with 0.1 to 0.2 accuracy and mowing practically autonomously. Except when it rains. When it rains, it returns to the dock runs it‘s battery to zero while sitting and waiting desperately for “Hal to open the cargo doors” and flip on charging.

I’ve done the rain sensor delete which seems to have some positive effect, and I make sure the top of the mower sensor is dry. Any other ideas? How does it know it’s wet?

Lymow Plus One - Issues with Replacement Blades & Omni Wheel Spring

Not sure where else to go for help, hoping someone will have advice or maybe someone at Lymow might see this and actually help me...

Came home one day after my Lymow Plus One had run to find that my yard looked very oddly mowed, it had of stripes of tall unmowed grass in it. Though to myself that's odd... so I went to the mower and raised the deck only to find that one blade was completely missing.

Looked around for over thirty minutes and we finally found the missing blade and went to install it back on the mower only to find that that "blade cleat" (not sure what else to call it) was also missing. Okay, so I had fortunately finally received the extra blades that I had ordered back in February a couple of weeks ago so I got those out thinking surely they include the pieces needed to install the new blades. Nope. To top it off the extra blades include a nut instead of a bolt, not sure how that would help me? (Maybe the Lymow One uses a bolt or something like that.) Checked Lymow's website hoping maybe I could order blade cleats, but apparently that is not a part that they sell, so I reached out to customer service. So far that has been absolutely nothing from Lymow's customer service, which I understand just seems to be the case now days, unfortunately.

Blade Cleat? Missing one of these

Another picture of the \"blade cleat\"

So, after that I go out to take a closer look at my mower and my husband points out that the mower deck is sitting crooked.

Crooked mower deck

Unfortunately he is correct about this. When we raise the deck again it turns out that there appears to be an issue with one of the Omni wheel not springing correctly, which from what I have read recently appears to be a common issue.

https://reddit.com/link/1tiooop/video/i0647oez4b2h1/player

At this point I am not sure what to do, Lymow's customer service is MIA, and I am stuck with an inoperable mower that has just past the 30 day return period. When the mower is working it is great, but when there are issues it sooooo frustrating...

If anyone knows of a way to actually reach customer service or if there is a third party vendor that has parts, if you could let me know I would be extremely grateful. If you are considering purchasing a Lymow Plus One, my advice to you would be to wait until Lymow gets their customer service figured out.

These battery connections are not the same!

There appears to be confusion at Lymow Support regarding the Direct Battery Charge Cable. The cable for the ONE battery Will Not connect to the PLUS battery.

Pic 1: One battery on the left, Plus battery on the right.

Pic 2: Close up of ONE battery connector and Charge Cable

Pic 3: Cable connected to One battery

Pic 4: Cable connector next to Plus battery connector. Not only different visually, cable Will Not connect to the Plus battery!

Responsible_Tough483, please post your email from CS here. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

charging contact brushes

I just received my charging contact brushes for my Lymow One. I've seen a couple of comments on here from frustrated users that they didn't work. I probably clean my contacts every 10 charges or so. And I'm home when I mow, so not much of a big deal for me. Has anyone had a positive experience with the brushes?

I am still trying to cancel my order

Apologies. I have started a fresh thread with the same continuing problem.

I have been trying to cancel my order UK1306 for over a month.

I have sent three emails to Lymow which have been ignored.

I have been in contact with SuccessfulPhysics661 on this forum. He replied three times and promised to help and has not done so. He asked me to Private Chat which I did three times and he/she did not reply to any message.

Last week, I contacted my bank to begin recovering my money. This is ongoing.

This morning, I received an email from Lymow proudly stating that my order has been shipped and is on its way.

I have just received another email with shipping details, and I have contacted the courier and have explained that we will not accept the shipment so they have put it on hold.

Lymow - SuccessfulPhysics661 - You must get in touch with me to cancel this order. This is an absolute disgrace.

Lymow one plus increase height of RTK

Does any one know if I increase the height of my RTK same position, should I remap my whole yard or will the existing map be fine?

About to buy - Help!

I’m currently looking into Mammotion, Yarbo and Lymow robot mowers and I’m trying to figure out which model would be best suited for my property.

Here are the main characteristics of my yard:

  • Around 1.5 acres
  • Not a simple square-shaped lot — the layout is somewhat irregular
  • Several trees and flower beds to navigate around
  • The back part of the property has slopes up to 46%
  • The furthest part of the yard is at least 800 feet from the house

One thing I’m particularly concerned about is signal/reception reliability because of the distance from the house and the shape of the property.

Would a Lymow be able to do all of this? How is your experience so far with your Lymow?

I’d really appreciate feedback. Thanks!

Wow, this app really improved!

JUst setupbthe app for the first time since winter. Was worried all winter and early spring watching people complain here about the app. Maybe I'll discover bugs, but this app development shows tremendous attention to the customer experience!

I can only imagine how much this forum would have lit up if many posters used the app last year... folks, this company is doing good things.

HOWEVER: did they really remove the PERIMETER ONLY method of mowing?!!!!!?!?!!!

It's literally the only mode I want to use all summer to maintain paths through the meadow. Then it mows down in the fall to mulch leaves. This is actually a huge loss with such easy ability to restore the perimeter only feature!

Lymow One to the One Plus - Do I need to remap?

I'll be receiving a One Plus as a warranty replacement for my Lymow One.

Do I need to remap my whole yard?

I've had a lot of GPS, WiFi and Bluetooth Issues with my One.

Is it safer to just remap?

Thanks in advance!

Hot Daze

Yesterday, the ambient temperature in Northern Virginia was about 93 degrees Fahrenheit. After mowing our front yard Lymow returned to the dock to recharge; however, despite a valiant effort it didn’t charge… finally sending an E51 error. After checking everything suggested, nothing helped.
Research revealed that the BMS (battery management system) will not allow charging the battery if too hot or too cold. Unfortunately the error message doesn’t mention anything about the temperature. After sitting in the dock overnight, and temperatures dropping, the Lymow charged and was ready to go in the morning.

Don’t panic! Just be aware that summer temperatures can delay recharge.

Replacement mower confirmed

Well, after more than 3 weeks of waiting on customer service, Lymow has finally agreed that my unit is defective. No matter what I tried, the mower’s location service would essentially crash. There was no rhyme or reason for when it would do it. Sometimes it could mow part of a zone. Sometimes it couldn’t even leave its dock. I suspect something very strange happened when mapping a zone. A firmware glitch. A corrupted module. Something that could not be remedied with resets, power offs, or updates.

When the mower would lose its location service, it would just stop completely because it didn’t know where it was in relation to the RTK base station. After that, nothing would work. I can’t even manually drive it in that state.

Thankfully, support has agreed to replace the unit. I am just waiting on a return label (who knows how long that will take).

This seems like a very rare, isolated problem. So I am hopeful that the replacement unit won’t fall into the same cycle. I’ve only seen one other Redditor with this problem.

Long story short for anyone reading this in the future, if your mower glitches out with E15, E16, and E21 errors, something is causing location services to crash. And there is nothing you can do to fix it. Replacement is the only option.
