Wet cleaning headiA floor head that mops or washes the floor with water. Optional accessory means the maker sells a compatible wet head separately. Optional accessory only when the maker's page for this exact model lists a wet head as compatible. A separate Submarine edition does not make the base model optional accessory. A kit sold with the wet head, such as an Aqua kit, is included in its variant row.

Suction and power

5 of 8 differ

Suction power (claimed)iThe maker's highest suction power claim in air watts. Some makers write W for suction power. Test standard, mode and tool differ by maker. Regional pages can state different figures.

250AW1Maker product pagedreametech.com/products/z20-station-cordless-stick-vacuumRead 15 October 2026Spec table lists suction power 250AW. Footnote says 250AW and 140,000RPM are based on in-house lab data and actual performance may vary. No test standard is named.

Rated poweriElectrical power of the vacuum as the maker publishes it, called motor power, rated power or wattage. It is not suction power in air watts. It is the maximum input power of the motor unit. A nozzle's own power is not added. The power of the charger or the dock does not count. When the maker states a rated figure and a higher maximum, such as LG's 350 W rated and 650 W in Turbo mode, the maximum is stored and the rated figure goes in the source note.

Noise level (claimed)iThe maker's published noise level, usually the sound power level at the highest setting. A reviewer's sound meter reading is a different measure.

Dustbin capacityiCapacity of the bin on the vacuum. Makers state the gross volume or the volume up to the max line. When both are given, the max-line volume is stored and the gross volume goes in the source note. A compaction claim, such as "holds three times more", is not stored.

Battery and run time

5 of 8 differ

Battery voltageiNominal pack voltage, such as 25.2 V. A full-charge voltage, such as 29.4 V for seven cells, is not nominal.

29.6V4Owner's manualcdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0302/5276/1220/files/V2419.pdfRead 15 October 2026Specification table lists the battery pack V2405-8S1P-GYA with nominal voltage 29.6 V.

The Polish review gives 25.9 V with 99.72 Wh, which agrees with 3850 mAh. A Finnish retailer lists 21.6 V and its title says 29.4 V, and a battery seller lists 25.2 V, so the nominal voltage is not confirmed by a maker document.2Reviewagdmaniak.pl/123319/dyson-v16-piston-animal-submarine-opiniaRead 14 October 2026Spec list says battery voltage 25.9 V and capacity 3850 mAh (99.72 Wh).

Battery capacityiPublished pack capacity at the nominal battery voltage. A cell count times a cell capacity, such as "8 x 3,200mAh", is not a pack capacity. The cell capacity is the pack capacity only when all cells are in series. That holds when the pack voltage divided by the cell count is one lithium-ion cell voltage, 3.6 or 3.7 V, such as 8 x 2,200mAh at 29.6 V. The source note shows the check. When the maker gives a rated and a nominal capacity, the one that matches its stated Wh at the pack voltage is stored.

2,700mAh4Owner's manualcdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0302/5276/1220/files/V2419.pdfRead 15 October 2026Specification table lists rated capacity 2700 mAh, nominal capacity 2850 mAh and energy 79.92 Wh. 2700 mAh x 29.6 V is 79.92 Wh, so the rated capacity is stored. Dreame's store pages list 8 x 2,850mAh, which is eight cells in series and not a pack total. The 2026 revision A05 adds the second battery supplier V2405-8S1P-BWA with the same figures.

Run time (claimed)iOne row per maker run time claim on one battery. Power level puts the maker's mode on a common scale. Lowest is the weakest setting, such as Eco or Min. Highest is the strongest, such as Boost, Max or Jet. Middle covers every setting between them. Claims that add a second battery are not stored. A handheld configuration without a motorized head counts as non-motorized tool. On hard floor with the main head counts as motorized floor head. Leave the tool out when the maker says neither or its own pages disagree, and name them in the source note. A machine with one power setting uses highest. When the maker gives a range, such as 20 to 25 min, the top of the range is stored and the range goes in the source note. A boost button or trigger counts as a setting, so a machine with one setting and a boost has a lowest and a highest row. A wet cleaning mode, such as Dyson Wet or Samsung WET, is not a power level, so it is not stored.
