my dyson v15 detect battery dies in like 5 minutes, is it broken?

— asked by Kyle

The most common cause is using Boost mode for general cleaning. It's designed for intensive spot cleaning and drains the battery fastest. For longer cleans, use Eco or Auto/Med mode.

  1. Check your current power mode on the LCD screen. Change it using the single button on the filter end of the machine.
  2. Switch to Eco mode for maximum run time for cleaning all around your home.
  3. Use Auto/Med mode for the optimum balance of power and run time. This mode activates automatically when you attach the cleaner head or Hair screw tool.
  4. Reserve Boost mode only for ground-in dirt spots.

If that didn't work: The battery health algorithm needs to 'learn'. Fully charge the machine after every clean and before first use. The display shows battery health; use Eco or Auto/Med mode to get the best life from the battery.

Heads up: Your machine won't operate or charge if the ambient temperature is below 5°C (41°F). This is a protective feature.
