Bist Win A100

In today's world, robotic technology is making life much easier. Window cleaning robots, also known as automatic window cleaners, are becoming increasingly popular. Bist has developed a new model of a robot for cleaning glass, tiles, and mirrors—the Bist Win A100. This article provides a detailed overview of the machine's capabilities, its technical specifications, and all the advantages and disadvantages.

Equipment

The Bist Win A100 window cleaner comes in a compact, medium-sized cardboard box. It's convenient for storing the robot when not in use. Inside the box are all the necessary components for effective cleaning of windows and tiles. The package includes the following items:

1. The window cleaner himself.
2. Remote control.
3. Safety rope.
4. Mounting block.
5. Two cleaning cloths (washing and polishing).
6. Power cord extension.
7. Power adapter.
8. Operating instructions.
9. Warranty card.

Additionally, you will need to purchase AA batteries for the remote control.

Appearance

The Bist Win A100 windshield wiper's design is appealing with its modernity, originality, and practicality. The body of the window cleaner is made of durable, high-quality plastic. The front panel is ribbed, making the material pleasant to the touch. The plastic is gray, and the wiper's shape is roughly square with rounded edges.

The model features a convenient handle located on the top panel. It allows for easy carrying and attaching the robotic cleaner to the surface being cleaned. A start and pause button is located directly in the center of the handle. The button is illuminated by indicator lights around the perimeter. The company logo is located below the button. The front panel is bare. This minimalist design lends a clean and original appearance.

A look at the underside of the window cleaning robot reveals two cleaning units. One is moving and designed for wet cleaning, while the other performs dry cleaning. Two special cleaning cloths, included in the kit, are attached to these two units. Also on the bottom of the Bist Win A100 are wheels, which allow the robot to move freely, scrapers, and a fan, or so-called mounting mechanism.

Additionally, you'll find a toggle switch for on/off operation. Distance sensors are located around the entire perimeter of the device, allowing the robot to see the window's edges. A suction sensor is also located at the bottom.

Functional capabilities

The Bist Win A100 robotic window cleaner uses four modes to clean windows quickly and efficiently, without leaving streaks. Cleaning quality is independent of where the wiper is attached to the window. Its operating principle is very simple: when placed on a surface and turned on, the wiper begins moving across the window. The rear part of the unit vibrates continuously, softening dried dirt and removing it without leaving marks or streaks.

The mobile cleaning unit allows for dry cleaning alone in most cases, even with heavy soiling. Wet cleaning rarely requires the use of cleaning products.

The glass cleaning robot is secured using a special fan located in the center of the bottom of the unit. After cleaning, the cloths are removed and rinsed under running water. If the window is not heavily soiled, the fiber can be washed without detergent.

A review of the features revealed that the Bist Win A100 window cleaner can move vertically, horizontally, and in a zigzag pattern, ensuring complete cleaning of the entire surface. This window cleaner is suitable for both wide and narrow surfaces, although there is a size limitation: the minimum window size is 40x50 cm.

Thanks to its shape, the robot can easily reach corners and clean along the frame. It's also worth noting that the Win A100 is also suitable for cleaning frameless glass, thanks to its built-in sensors.

The Bist robotic cleaner is controlled using a remote control. Its compact size and easy-to-use buttons make it significantly easier to use. Using the remote, you can select the desired cleaning mode or control the robotic cleaner manually.

To start the window cleaner, it must be connected to a power source. It's also important to secure the safety cable to prevent the Bist Win A100 from accidentally falling off the window. Before starting the window cleaning robot, make sure its backup battery is fully charged. This will allow it to remain on the surface for another half hour if the power cord is accidentally disconnected.

Operating instructions

The Bist Win A100 comes with an operating manual. It provides an overview of all the Bist Win A100's features and operating modes. It also contains a detailed description of how to operate the robot. The manual also includes recommendations for proper operation of the device.

Advantages and disadvantages

The review of the model highlighted the following advantages of the Bist Win A100:

1. Modern and stylish design.
2. Easy-to-use remote control.
3. The robotic cleaner does its job efficiently and without leaving streaks.
4. Low noise level during operation.

The washer has no particular drawbacks. The only thing is that its price is a bit steep, being above average. However, its features and functionality justify the price, which in 2019 was approximately $309. There are also temperature restrictions – the acceptable range is from 0 to 40 degrees Celsius.
