Lawn larger than recommended: can it do multiple parts?
I appreciate you trying to help, but my question was, "is the 3000 SQ meters just the max the battery can handle, or a software limitation". If one is ok with waiting a long time for it to cycle back to the beginning again, and just mowing the max amount every time, then the navimow seems reasonable. I wouldn't care if it would take a month to get back to the beginning, it still means it gets mowed once every month, which is fine for my use case. Spending 16k on a mower is not. It was buy mower with this capability or building an openmoweropenmower that could do so.
- Great idea and natural integration with OpenMower project

Fully Charged: Electric Lawn Mowers with solar panels!
This is coming from someone that wishes that someone would sell a kit or publish plans with a list of parts needed and printable to make a robot mower that can scale up for yards larger than 2 acres. Best thing I've found so far is this: https://github.com/ClemensElflein/OpenMower

How long can a smart house live without its owner?
You get a robot mower specifically so you don't have to go outside. Plus, it's a freaking robot that mows your lawn!!! How cool is that! That factor alone means someone whose primary hobby is collecting IoT things has to get one... or two. Plus maybe another open source OpenMower tinkering platform mower. That's the mentality of an IoT hoarder.
