Both models on one scale, every figure traced to its manufacturer datasheet. Bar length means the same thing here as on every other page of the site.

AquaSense 2 vs Scuba S1 Pro, to scale
  • AquaSense 2
  • Scuba S1 Pro
Pool capacitymore is better
3,230sq ft
2,150sq ft
  • AquaSense 2: Published as Recommended Pool Size of 300 square meters (3,230 square feet), specified on a pool bottom area basis in the official spec table.
  • Scuba S1 Pro: Published as 2150 sq.ft (200 square meters) and 66 ft (20 m) in length for in-ground pools.
Runtimemore is better
Not published
180min
  • AquaSense 2: Beatbot publishes up to 4 hours of continuous floor cleaning from the 10,000 mAh battery, a floor only measurement basis, not a whole pool runtime covering walls and waterline, so no comparable runtime value is charted.
  • Scuba S1 Pro: Published as up to 180 minutes, mode not specified. Aiper states figures are obtained in a controlled test environment or from Aiper Laboratories, actual performance may vary.
Flow ratemore is better
5,500GPH
6,000GPH
  • AquaSense 2: Published as 5,500 GPH suction, but Beatbot's own footnote states 5500 GPH was the highest rate tested in Beatbot's internal labs and actual results may vary, so this is a peak internal lab figure, not a rated continuous flow.
  • Scuba S1 Pro: Spec table publishes 6000 GPH (22740 LPH), lab basis per Aiper disclaimer. A comparison table on the same official store page lists 6600 GPH (25200 LPH) for this model; the dedicated spec table figure is used here.
Filtration (finest layer)less is better
150µm
3µm
  • AquaSense 2: FAQ states a 150 um filter capturing leaves, hair, sand, and insects; spec table lists a 2 L filter basket. Two FAQ entries describe it inconsistently as single layer and as two layer, both at 150 um.
  • Scuba S1 Pro: Dual layer filtration: Level 1 is a 180 um fine filter basket, Level 2 is a 3 um MicroMesh ultra fine filter. The 3 um figure is the ultra fine layer only. Top load 5 L debris basket.
