Yes, I understand all of this. But can you give us how to correct the machine? Also, yeah, Dyson's one unexpected mistake really brought the V16 down. Dyson should've known better from the start like they did often, and they really should've double-checked before shipping the whole thing globally.

He do know the technology and standards. He know the main-equivalent (or what I would call anti-corded) handsticks are the way to go. Only Dyson's ones (particularly the V10 onwards) and the absolute best of the dupes are the true proper examples of these handsticks - all others are just that...

V16 <- Gen5 <- V12/V15 <- V11 <- V10 But Dyson's superior handstick form factor dates back to DC35, so should be... <- V10 <- V7/V8 <- V6 <- DC35. That's 7 generations, if you make the lineage continuous! That kinda explains why no normal-sized Dyson cordless has the XL roller heads. The...

In other words, clean methodologically. - Push and pull slow and steady. - Overlap well, but not necessarily too much. - Keep track of your floor and carpet. (The laser's got the hard floors covered)

I made this thread to discuss about the hack needed to fix (the initial batch of) Dyson V16, so I expect Vacuum Facts and friends to be useful. Where are they now? ._.

Towards 2026 is plenty of time for Dyson to fix the big mistake... @Vacuum Facts @vac14012

I knew it! This whole forum is an echo chamber of ignorance!

At least it's not my fault though... >_>

I 100% agree with you. He is also very objective, unlike the majority of the reviewers and journalists. I trust him, and do not force me (or anyone for that matter) to stop trusting him.

And the data shows it all. It and the physics have proved that the Dyson form factor is the way to go, whether it's be DC35-hand (right angle version) or the gun of V10-and-beyond (in line version), or even outright power-broom like PencilVac. You can fit a small yet efficient AND powerful motor...

This also helps explain why the dupes advances slower than the original. Only the original has the R&D to do real stuffs first, while the dupes has to cut corners. Now the V16 Piston is a half-dupe at launch...

@shattered I think I can guess the suction of V16! - Boost: 315AW (the official claim) - Boost (broken design): ~160AW (900W down to 450W) - Med: ~70AW (look at the test AW and the claimed improvement over Gen5) - Med (broken design): <50AW (when mistaken, V16 do worse than Dreame Z30 Auto...

Which is definitely part of a controlled and methodical cleaning method. You have to overlap some, not only to eliminate unswept paths but also increase cleaning effectiveness.

It's just their testing process. Different from even the labs. Either way, 900W (450W when gimped, like some have to complain) with 35% efficiency, giving 315AW in Boost mode, does sound powerful. I think I remember when I asked about the suction power of Gen5 outside of the Boost mode, but so...

Bruh... Fine!
