I have some things that I have bean wondering!

If you put a

rb in the same place every time he sleeps for a while will it know that there is where he should sleep??

Sadly not, though I'd love it if they did!

They don''t have the software to recognise people or places.

Ok thanks anyway I asked because I made my hopefully soon to be pleo a little house out of a picnick basket!

Crewella · « **Reply #3 on:** February 21, 2012, 07:30:57 AM »

Awwww - many of us have made beds or houses for our Pleos!

There's a great thread here - add a pic of yours if you have one!

Where can I buy the cheapest still unused or very good condition pleo rb??

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #8 on:** February 21, 2012, 02:48:34 PM »

eBay, Reborn's secondhand are almost impossible to find and when you do find them the are often charging more than Pleoworld

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #9 on:** February 21, 2012, 02:54:53 PM »

CamCam instead of starting a whole bunch of topics with one question each could you please just post them all in one place, it makes it much easier for us not to overlook them and it allows other users with questions to easily find answers if they have similar questions. I merged your questions for you

Thank you.

CamCam, you are in my opinion, much better to buy a brand new Pleo Rb from the factory , either in Europe or if in USA, from PleoWorld for several reasons. The first being as IMR clearly and concisely stated, they seldom show up on Ebay or anywhere else, used, unless highly priced and more importantly to me, they being older are past the 90 day warrantly and you do want to make sure you have that 90 day warranty incase anything was to go wrong with Pleo Rb. Every once in awhile, a unopend Pleo Rb will even show up on Ebay,( twice this past year that I know of in USA) but they were from the original Dec. 2010 issue, which quite a few seemed to have skin issues which have since been resolved.

But because these RB were purchased and sitting in someone's house for about a year, even though unopened, they were past the 90 day warranty and the warranty was void for the new owner.
Personally if I am going to spend the money for a Pleo Rb, I want that warranty and even for Pleos that have sold for as little as $300.00, I would rather pay the full price and know I am protected. Your best bet if you do want a used Pleo Rb is to watch the Marketplace on this site, as occasionally they have shown up, and I do know of two that I can think of and the members know each other and it feels "safer" to me.
As for not thinking your internet is "fast enough to post photos", I do not think unless you have a very old computer, the internet speed should not affect being able to post photos. I used to have a ME computer operating system and I was still able to post photos and videos , a little slower but not that bad, Give it a try you have nothing to lose.

I have a friend Claire and that name is a great name I think also! Good luck with whatever Pleo you decide to get.

What type of connection do you have CamCam? If you have dial-up it will be too slow I'm sorry, you could try emailing your pictures to a moderator and have them upload it for you.
I have a fast computer but only dial up internet and it is for sure not fast enought to upload pictures to Bob the Pleo

I have to email all my pictures to Crewella if I want to show them here or put them in a youtube video which takes days to finnish processing. The computer itself is very fast, quite new and more than capable of handeling large files but the old type internet connection just can't handle it and times out.

Best place for a RB is still PleoWorld because no one sells them second hand and when they do the price is still very high, often more than a new one like others have said. If you don't like the RB price tag you can get a brand new Ugobe for $200 from the Hong Kong seller on eBay. I have one and he is very good.

Well lets it this way: I had a problem getting to reply as it kept on blocking up and not letting me do anything!!
And the price for the pleo rb is high but I was only wondering if you could get them anywhere cheaper!

camcam8910 · « **Reply #13 on:** February 22, 2012, 07:37:00 AM »

Does the egg charger and white battery work for all diffrent kinds of pleos??

Crewella · « **Reply #14 on:** February 22, 2012, 07:40:47 AM »

No, the egg charger batteries only work in classic/Ugobe Pleos.

For what it's worth, occasionally a second hand Pleo RB comes up for sale on here. It's worth keeping an eye out.

camcam8910 · « **Reply #15 on:** February 22, 2012, 07:47:31 AM »

Crewella,
well know that you have cleared that up I have one more question,
Does the pleo rb battery take less time to charge and stays charged longer than the older version pleo?
As I have heard it will.

kat · « **Reply #16 on:** February 22, 2012, 07:50:49 AM »

The manual suggests that the battery should take 4 hours to charge and you will get 2 hours play time. Mine all only take 3 hours to fully charge and I get the full 2 hours of play

Crewella · « **Reply #17 on:** February 22, 2012, 07:53:21 AM »

Yes, like the egg charger batteries, the new RB battery is much better than the original green NiMH battery, charges quicker and lasts longer. They are both Li-Poly batteries, and are pretty similar, actually. BUT you can only use the egg batteries in classic/Ugobe Pleos and the brown RB battery in the RBs.

camcam8910 · « **Reply #18 on:** February 22, 2012, 07:58:53 AM »

Thank you Crewella I will tell my friend about the knew egg chargers and batteries as she has the older version of pleo and never complains and says that her battery lasts all day!

But I will tell her none the less.
Also do the tricks like play dead and watch dog and all those work on the pleo rbs to?
I mean the ones that you have to hold sertain sensors for them to react?

Crewella · « **Reply #19 on:** February 22, 2012, 08:01:29 AM »

The basic RB doesn't, but the tricks are part of the 'Play' learning stone package so you kind of need to 'teach' them and get the stone.

camcam8910 · « **Reply #20 on:** February 22, 2012, 08:19:43 AM »

Thank you crewella
Do the learning stones work on the older version pleo?
and how do you post pictures so that I can post pictures of the two beds that I made? (one for night time and one for nap times)

Crewella · « **Reply #21 on:** February 22, 2012, 08:21:02 AM »

No, only the RB has the RFID chip reader that can read the learning stones.

Send the pics to me - I'll pm you.

Can I charge a pleo rb battery over night?

kat · « **Reply #23 on:** February 23, 2012, 07:33:54 AM »

I often charge mine overnight. It's not a good idea to leave them sitting on the charger for days but over night is just fine. I put mine on just before I go to bed and then take then off fully charged as soon as I get up in the morning.

camcam8910 · « **Reply #24 on:** February 23, 2012, 07:47:28 AM »

That is good as that will be one of the best times to charge the battery as will not be playing with my pleo at night.
