I am really annoyed with my Dreame L40 Ultra robot cleaner. I have not been able to connect to it over LAN, ever, and even with a mobile connection, it now fails 99% of the time, saying the robot is "Restarting..." for days and days.
So, Valetudo.
Does anybody have a Dreame Breakout PCB (github.com/Hypfer/valetudo-dre) they could send me? I'd send it back, and I'd pay for you sending it, of course.

🧼 Your robot vacuum isn’t just cleaning—it might be mapping.

Many models use LiDAR or cameras to scan your home. Some have uploaded data—including images—to the cloud. While not all vacuums have cameras, privacy risks vary by brand.

📌 Review your model’s settings
📌 Disable cloud features if possible
📌 Always check that privacy policy

Everything is off the floor and I'm running my robot vacuum for the first time since I bought it almost a year ago. Sadge, but good.

Getting my poo straight FINALLY after a year of "decompressing" since the move to a new state where I know NO ONE.

I have swept and vacuumed manually for the record. However, I'm watching this bad boy suck up all the proverbial CRAP as I continue on my "BETTER ME" (or should I say back to me) journey.

It's cathartic. Now THIS is a good Friday!!

My robot vacuum died it, it stopped sucking 😝
I was dreading the return process. But I have to have it to Dreame, it was a super easy process.
They asked for some video evidence (which seems fair enough), and a few days later directed me to a portal to log my RMA.
Some enterprises benefits could learn a thing or two about this process.
