You got it right.. an excuse for a crappy production…
There could be a diffrence in the power cycles between the US and other countries 50/60HZ but since you are using your regulator then this should not be a factor…

Comment on Question About The Irobot Roomba.? by mojos196

I really don’t think that it’ll go over a one inch or even a half inch bump…If you go to the store and turn it over, you’ll see that it seriously has 0 clearance..
The roomba is great for harwood and tile floors, but on carpet, all it really does is pick up surface dirt…I know that it “says” that it’s a vacuum but it’s only really a broom…If you use it for carpet you still need to vacuum with your regular vac once a week to get the deep down dirt…
Hope I’ve helped..

Comment on How Much Energy Does The Irobot Roomba 570 Use To Fully Charge? Watts Or Kilowatts Or Something Like That? by fodaddy1

Since it’s much smaller than a conventional vacuum cleaner and thus has a much smaller motor, I’d be willing to bet that it uses substantially less electricity than a standard vacuum. If you bothered that much about something so trivial you could always break out the broom and dustpan.

I see that you have not received many responses to your question. I think maybe it would do better in a different category, yahoo sometimes doesn’t do a great job of choosing the category.
Engineers are more into the theoretical and the math.
I think that if you post this same question under consumer electronics you will get a lot of responses. Your question is well stated and includes plenty of details. Engineers are more into the theoretical and the math.
Good Luck
