The answer
What to know.
Watch the Skimmi charging video
Dolphin Skimmi reaches a full charge in 2.5 hours of direct sunlight. A fully charged battery provides 8 hours of operation.
In direct sunlight, it can run on solar power without draining the battery.
Nets above the pool and pool covers may make charging less efficient.
