Suction and power

6 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.

40,000Pa1Maker product pagethekardv.comRead 14 October 2026V06 section says a 500W motor delivers 40Kpa of maximum suction, which is 40000 Pa. A separate features block on the same page says 550W brushless motor and 50Kpa, and a heading says 50-minute runtime. Those figures conflict with the V06 text, the Amazon listing and the Vacuum Wars review, which all describe 500W and 40Kpa, so they are not stored.2Retailer pageamazon.com/dp/B0F2B29SPCRead 14 October 2026Bullet says a 500W motor gives 40Kpa of suction in MAX mode. Title says 500W/40Kpa.

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.

Bin and filtration

5 of 6 differ

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. A dock bag that the maker calls the dust bin goes in the dock dust capacity.

HEPA2Retailer pageamazon.com/dp/B0F2B29SPCRead 14 October 2026Listing lists filter type HEPA Filter and two HEPA filters in the box. The maker figures for filter efficiency conflict between the listing bullet (99 percent above 0.1 um, 95 percent below), an A+ image (99.97 percent) and the brand site (99.99 percent), so no capture figure is stored.

Sealed filtrationiThe maker states that the whole machine is sealed, so all air passes the filter before it leaves.

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.

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).

25.9V2Retailer pageamazon.com/dp/B0F2B29SPCRead 14 October 2026Listing structured data lists power voltage 25.9 volts. The brand's replacement battery listing lists voltage 29 and a charger output of 31 V, which fits a 7-cell pack at full charge (29.4 V), so 25.9 V is the nominal voltage.

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.

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.

DisplayiScreen means an LCD or similar screen that shows text or numbers, such as the run time left. LED indicators are status lights only. The maker's word does not decide. A panel that shows numbers or text is a screen, even when the maker calls it an LED display. A panel of fixed icons or bars is LED indicators, even when the maker calls it a smart display.
