There is a slim chance of any drastic issues, but for my peace of mind, I have been using only genuine Dyson batteries.

Earlier this month, U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) warned consumers to immediately stop using ZAUTNKN.INC Lithium-Ion replacement battery packs for Dyson vacuums due to fire hazard; these batteries were sold on Amazon (source [cpsc.gov]).


New York Times Wirecutter wrote an article in 2020 titled, "Knockoff Dyson Vacuum Batteries Are Cheap, but They Aren't Worth the Risk" (source [nytimes.com]).

I am not trying to stop anyone from buying third-party batteries, but am simply bringing awareness that there may be a potential problem.


Take care,
Tofu Vic
Third party V8 replacement batteries are $30-$40 on Amazon and they work great. Consider the batteries a running cost - even if you buy a new V11, with how powerful these motors are the battery is going to degrade in a couple of years again.
MASSIVE upgrade from V8 to V11. I have both and it's no comparison. Better suction, better battery (doesn't need to be replaced every couple years), twice the runtime, three levels of suction instead of two, easier to dock & undock if you use the dock, etc.. Only downside is V11 being a bit heavier but easily worth the trade off.

Anyone have that V11 Extra? We're currently using a V8 with a somewhat wonky battery (works for a minute, then stops, works fine until empty after hanging it on charger briefly and starting again), but I do like the idea of a readout on the battery life. And, since ours was a refurb, a new battery on this one would be another upgrade.

Just curious how much of an upgrade from the V8, and whether or not it's truly worth nearly $300. I love Dysons, but the prices can be hard to swallow.

Has anyone had any success changing the battery to a DeWalt on the v11? I see a bunch of adapters for the V8, but I cannot find any for the v11. Any help would be much appreciated.

What is the difference between Dyson Outsize Plus Cordless Vacuum and Dyson
Gen5Outsize here https://www.dyson.com/vacuum-clea...447923-01?

I'm looking for a HEPA filter model.

you might want to try the V8 without any attachments to see if it still does that. Mine was shutting off in a minute after a full charge but then realized there was some debris stuck in the vacuum head joint. Once that was cleaned out it worked fine.

It all depends on whether you want to use a newer model or not. As mentioned above, you can replace the battery with amazon knock offs and mine held up fine for several years now. I also have a v10, and I did notice a slight power upgrade with suction, but I personally prefer the bin orientation of v8 than the others.

Owned V11 animal for 5 years. I had to replace the motorhead. There's actually a motor chip inside and a capacitor burnt out. Known issue. Took the case apart and cleaned out all the dust. Replaced the air filter every year with OEM filter. Very solid vaccum.

Would you recommend getting the V11 refurb or the open box? Both are sold by Dyson.

I had a v10 and was impressed went to a v11 four years later.

I doubt anyone would get this lucky ,but when we bought our v10 years ago (I think 4 years or so ago) from Walmart as a refurb. Walmart cancelled our order, but Dyson still shipped it it. YMMV definitely on that "deal"

I got the v11 Outsize though from this. We love our V10, but the battery is dying and the "fluffy head" died too and that's about $250 to replace both from Dyson. Might as well get a new one.
