Roomba 690 + HA integration? about home-assistant-config

[Norien]

Hi, My Roomba 690 is running SW: 3.2.10 and I was able to retrieve the blid and password with https://github.com/koalazak/dorita980#how-to-get-your-usernameblid-and-password

I am using the official Roomba component.

I suppose it's this one https://www.home-assistant.io/components/vacuum.roomba/?

[Norien]

This is correct.

vacuum:
  - platform: roomba
    host: !secret roomba_ip
    username: !secret roomba_blid
    password: !secret roomba_pass

Thank you! What was your previous Roomba and what problem did you have with it? I'm wondering if a Roomba 691 works the same way as Roomba 690.

I used to own an older non connected / app controlled Roomba where I was able to install a wemos d1 mini to connect direct Into the motherboard for some basic controls. That Roomba was pretty old and worn out so when hass officially supported the newer models I decided to replace it all together.

Thank you for your answer. Another question if I may, are you satisfied with your Roomba performance?

[Norien]

Roomba works ok for the most part. I still require a deeper vacuum with my regular Dyson Animal on the weekends. It just helps keep the place touched up if you know what I mean.

Yeah alright makes sense to me. Thanks! I'm closing this ticket then.
