So, you finally did it. You dropped the cash (and let’s be honest, it was a lot of cash) on a wire-free robot lawn mower. Whether you joined Team Mammotion Luba 2 AWD or Team Segway Navimow, you have officially entered the future of lawn care. No more sweating in the sun, no more burying perimeter wires. Just pure, satellite-guided grass cutting.


But here is the thing the manufacturers don’t tell you: The robot is just the beginning.

If you want to protect your $2,500 investment, stop it from getting stolen, and keep it running through the mud, you need the right gear.


We’ve scoured the forums and subreddits to find the 10 most popular upgrades available on Amazon that actually work with your new robot. Please note that these are affiliate links (I will receive a commission from Amazon at no additional cost to you.) Thank you for your support! 


1. The "Better Than Official" Garage: Mini-Split/HVAC Cover


The official garages for these robots can cost upwards of 150− 200 and are often just flimsy plastic sheets. Owners have discovered that adjustable awnings made for mini-split air conditioners are cheaper, sturdier, and look way better. Other alternatives include roll-up camping tables, garden boxes, or widow well covers (some even covered this with turf to hide it from view. 


Why you need it: UV rays kill batteries and heavy rain messes with sensors. Your robot needs a roof.

Pros: Fits the charging station perfectly, provides heavy-duty hail protection, cheaper than the official brand.

Cons: You may need to drill into a wall or build a small wooden frame to mount it.

Approx. Price: $80 - $120

Outdoor Tool House - $115 https://amzn.to/499FMO9 

VidaXL Garage - $96 https://amzn.to/49qrxmU



2. Titanium Endurance Blades (30-Pack)

Both the Luba and the Navimow use "razor style" swing blades. The stock ones dull after a few weeks. Smart owners switch to titanium-coated endurance blades immediately.


Why you need it: Dull blades tear the grass (turning it brown) rather than cutting it. Titanium stays sharp twice as long.


Pros: Universal fit (usually compatible with Husqvarna/Luba patterns), cheap, massive bulk pack lasts two seasons.

Cons: Extremely sharp—handle with gloves!

Approx. Price: $25

EMBerg Endurance Blades - $25 https://amzn.to/4qhjG2w



3. Waterproof AirTag/SmartTag Mount

Let’s address the elephant in the room: You have a very expensive computer sitting in your front yard. While these robots have GPS tracking, a hidden Apple AirTag or Samsung SmartTag provides a crucial backup if the mower is turned off.


Why you need it: Peace of mind. If "Robbie" goes for a walk, you want to know where he went.


Pros: Waterproof, industrial adhesive sticks anywhere inside the chassis or under the hood, stealthy.

Cons: You need to change the AirTag battery once a year.

Approx. Price: $14

Elevation Lab AirTag “Tagvault” - $14 https://amzn.to/4aMOxPu



4. Universal J-Pole Antenna Mount

These mowers use RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) technology, meaning they need a reference station antenna to see the sky. The little pole included in the box is rarely high enough to clear your roofline or trees.


Why you need it: If your mower keeps losing signal near the house, you need to mount that antenna higher. This TV dish mount is the standard fix.


Pros: Heavy-duty, adjustable angle, gets your RTK antenna above roof obstructions for perfect GPS lock.

Cons: Requires a ladder and a drill to install.

Approx. Price: $35

Universal J Pipe Mount for Antenaa - $35 https://amzn.to/49qEIUS



5. Stainless Steel Wheel Spikes (Traction Kit)

The Mammotion Luba is a tank, but even tanks slip on wet clover or steep hills. If your yard has slopes, these screw-in studs or wheel spikes are mandatory to prevent the robot from tearing up the turf when it loses traction.


Why you need it: Stops the "drift" on hills and prevents the robot from getting stuck in mud.

Pros: Incredible grip, looks aggressive (in a cool way), easy to install.

Cons: Can scratch driveways or pavers if the robot crosses them frequently.

Approx. Price: $45

Anti-slip Spike Set for Mammotion Yuka - $30 https://amzn.to/49r4cSe


Wheel Studs Alternative Option

EMBerg Wheel Studs Kit - $20 https://amzn.to/49l64f5




6. Outdoor Smart Plug (Wi-Fi)

Sometimes, technology just... freezes. If your charging station glitches or the robot needs a hard reset while you are on vacation, a waterproof smart plug lets you cut the power and turn it back on from your phone.

Why you need it: The ultimate "Have you tried turning it off and on again?" remote solution.

Pros: Works with Alexa/Google Home, weatherproof, saves you a trip outside in the rain.

Cons: Requires a strong Wi-Fi signal at the charging location.

Approx. Price: $20 

Kasa Outdoor Smartplug - $24 https://amzn.to/49uCQL1



7. Heavy Duty Scrub Brush & Scraper Set

Robots are low maintenance, not no maintenance. Wet grass turns into a concrete-like paste under the cutting deck. You need the right tools to scrape it out once a week.

Why you need it: Caked grass reduces battery life and makes the mower loud.

Pros: Ergonomic handles, stiff bristles get into the wheel wells, metal scraper won't break while you clean the chassis.

Cons: You still have to do the work yourself.

Approx. Price: $15

Lawn Mower Deck Cleaning Kit - $14 https://amzn.to/49oijYf



8. Long-Range Outdoor Wi-Fi Extender

Here is the dirty secret of modern robot mowers: they are incredibly needy when it comes to Wi-Fi. Both the Luba 2 and Navimow rely on internet connectivity for firmware updates, theft alerts, and app control. If your router is inside the house and your mower is at the back of the lot, it’s going to go offline constantly.


Why you need it: To stop the dreaded "Device Offline" notification when you’re trying to tell the mower to return to the dock. It ensures your RTK corrections (which sometimes use internet data) stay stable.

Pros: Weatherproof, blasts signal through exterior walls, ensures you can actually use the fancy app features you paid for.

Cons: Requires a bit of tech setup (linking to your main router).

Approx. Price: $40 – $70

TP-Link Omada Long Range Outdoor Access Point - $70 https://amzn.to/4q2Ac6a



9. Dielectric Grease

This is the secret sauce for outdoor electronics. When you connect your RTK antenna or the power cords, a dab of this grease prevents corrosion and water ingress.

Why you need it: The number one killer of robot mowers is corroded charging contacts.

Pros: Cheap insurance for expensive electronics, easy to apply.

Cons: It’s greasy (obviously).

Approx. Price: $8

BTAS Dielectric Grease - $8 https://amzn.to/4b5GrSj



10. Waterproof Extension Cord Safety Cover

"Wire-free" refers to the boundary wire, not the power cord. You still have to plug the base station and the RTK antenna into an outlet. This usually leaves a connection point (where the mower's power brick meets your extension cord) sitting exposed on your wet lawn. Do not let your $2,500 robot short out because of morning dew.


These also work great for Christamas lights if you live in wet or snowy climates. 


Why you need it: These capsule-shaped boxes lock the plugs together and create a watertight seal around them. It is the cheapest insurance policy you can buy.

Pros: IP54 waterproof rating, blends in with the grass (usually green), prevents cables from being pulled apart.

Cons: It adds a bulky plastic "pill" to your cable run.

Approx. Price: $12


IP54 Waterproof Capsule - $10 (3-pack) https://amzn.to/4q3PM1r

Standard Surge Protector Waterproof Case - $18 https://amzn.to/4aNLg2j
