How are you connecting to your Create 3?USB Ethernet (ROS 2) Computer(s) Model(s) and Operating System(s)Raspberry Pi4 / Ubuntu Which version of ROS 2 is installed on your computer?Humble Which firmware version is installed on your robot?H.1 Which RMW is your robot running?CycloneDDS Does your robot have an assigned namespace? If so, please share.No response Is the robot connected to a network? If so, what is the network type?No response Are there multiple Create 3 robots connected to your network?None Is multicast enabled?None What is the Adapter Board's USB/BLE Toggle currently switched to?None Describe your question.There are larger capacity batteries available for previous version of the Create (also the commercial Roombas). I was just wondering if there were plans to make one available for the Create 3? I'm working on a project which adds a few extra sensors so it would be nice to have a bit more than the 1800 mAh battery that it has currently and there seems to be space for a higher capacity battery. |

Hello! The battery for all j-series and some i-series Roomba robots will work with Create 3, and is ~32 Wh (compared to the ~26 Wh of the original battery), as long as your robot's software is up-to-date (and I can see that it is). The battery for the Roomba Combo™ j7+ should also work with the robot, and is ~64 Wh. Unfortunately, that battery is not yet available separately, but I suspect it will be, some time soon. Hope this helps! |
