Battery and run time

Voltage 36 V. The same 36 V, 2.5 Ah, 90 Wh figures are on German Kaufland and eBay listings. Dyson publishes no pack figures and says only 10-cell.
Battery capacity
2,500mAh7Retailer page123accu.nl/Dyson-Gen5-972382-03-972382-04-accu-36-V-2-5-Ah-origineel-i57936.htmlRead 20 October 2026Listing says 2.5 Ah, about 90 Wh. All 10 cells are in series, since 36 V divided by 10 is 3.6 V, one lithium-ion cell. So 2,500 mAh at 36 V is 90 Wh. The listing is a retailer value for the battery part and no maker document was found.
