The battery issues of the Dyson V11 vacuum design made me very upset. On my previous weekend I battled my laziness by organizing my garage.
However, my Dyson vacuum battery stops working every time I charge it.
The battery did not start responding when I connected it to the power source. I faced this battery failure repeatedly during my Dyson product use.
The battery issues of the Dyson V11 made me choose to attach a DeWalt 20v battery because the machine no longer worked.
Using Dyson to DeWALT Battery Adapter
The Standard Battery Pack Removal Process from Dyson Vacuum Model
Every person can take out their Dyson V11 Vacuum Battery without any trouble. Within one minute I disconnected the battery pack by taking out the handle screw and battery plate screws.
I removed the battery unit after taking it off its installed position. The device shows complete power outage with every battery cell drained.
This wasn’t the first time I was facing issues with the Dyson battery pack not working properly. Needless to say, I was done using this battery pack for any further projects or cleaning use.
Replacing The Battery Pack With DeWalt 20v Adapter
To equip the Dyson V11 with the 20v DeWalt Battery adapter I first took off its handle and bottom screws. Now, the fun part starts.
A 30-to-50 dollar DeWalt battery adapter installs without any problems. Install new adapters on your Dyson instead of low-quality ones bought on eBay which can be found at good prices.
Connect the DeWalt 20v battery inside the adapter in its standard alignment. Make sure you test the battery power first to check it functions at full charge.
Hard work needs to pay off totally with this approach. You can plug the battery adapter into the bottom slot of your Dyson Vacuum after power connection.
Test vacuum operation first and then secure the adapter tightly.
Turning the trigger switch firmly turns on the vacuum system. Your conversion method performs well when you see power coming from this adapter.
Secure the adapter firmly into the vacuum handle screw opening on the Dyson system. I desired to learn if the 20v battery could run properly across all vacuum speeds.
My DeWalt 20v battery entered every operating mode of the vacuum without any trouble. After cleaning the workbench, I tested Eco setting and after that shifted to Medium then Boost operations.
As you switch through operation modes the battery shows greater power capability because this smaller 20v battery supports all vacuum modes.
Usage Tips
You will find great satisfaction with the DeWalt battery inside your Dyson Vacuum. Checking these primary aspects helps your vacuum work well and uses battery power effectively.
People destroy their DeWalt batteries after connecting these batteries to Dyson chargers through the adapter. Using the battery pack this way can harm it permanently. So, avoid it all costs.
Tighten all electrical connections and look for dirt and moisture build-up to maintain proper battery and adapter performance.
The battery and adapter units will continue working for multiple years without needing repairs.
The main issue you need to care about is the extra load from the adapter and battery. The adapter weight will affect machine operations by a small amount.
You will naturally adapt to using the added weight of this accessory. So, overall, the weight concerns should not stress you heavily.
Final Thoughts
My evaluation of Dyson batteries does not change my opinion about DeWalt’s superior brand quality.
The batteries generate high output energy while operating a longer time and operate without safety risk. Since Dyson batteries have reliability issues you should invest in DeWalt equipment instead.
