The Dyson V11 Outsize is a full sized cordless vacuum cleaner that is built for cleaning your entire household regardless of the floor type. In fact, it’s rated to put out twice as much suction power as any of their other cordless vacuums in their lineup. This just demonstrates the importance of excellent batteries as well as quickly charging them.
It’s important to remember to fully charge it when you first pull it out of the box. This helps the longevity of the battery as you want it to go through that full charging cycle before it becomes drained during use. Plus you will be able to clean more of your house with a fully charged unit. Here is a quick overview on how to charge your new Dyson V11 Outsize:
- Batteries can be charged on the machine (using the docking station) or off (with a simple plug into an outlet)
- If you have multiple batteries it is recommended to switch them up as much as possible to avoid one wearing out faster
- The LCD display always shows the remaining power during use
- The blue LED indicator lights on the battery will flash during charging and then go out when fully charged
- A quick pull of the trigger will display 100% and you know you are good to go
- If the battery is fully drained this process can take upwards of 4 hours but dual batteries can help alleviate any downtime
