Brace yourself for this groundbreaking solution: an 18-volt Makita battery.

The member proudly displayed the inner workings of his Dyson Stick Vac in a Facebook group.

It was not a Frankenstein-like experiment but a brilliant innovation as he successfully combined the Dyson with an 18-volt battery pack.

Cleaning enthusiasts were captivated by his daring ingenuity and eagerly admired his creation.

'Get yourself a Makita battery adapter, throw on your battery and then vacuum for days and days!' he shared.

The Makita, he touted, had freed him from daily recharges and allowed his vacuum to be ever-ready for dust-busting challenges: 'I've vac'd the whole house every day for the last six days with the same Makita battery, still going strong.'

It's worth noting that the Makita battery adapter is priced at $169!

The post sparked a flurry of responses from intrigued group members, eager to learn how to replicate this clever trick in their homes.

A member of the group replied in disbelief, exclaiming, ‘Wait!!!! What????!’

However, the chorus of responses that followed echoed with a harmonious blend of surprise and admiration, as others chimed in with enthusiastic remarks like, ‘Wow, great idea!’

A third person even commented, ‘Game changer! We have done this too!’

A fourth, ‘We do this. The extra power and dirt pick up is insane.’

But widespread fame often invites scrutiny. Amidst awe-struck praises and shared triumphs, warnings sprinkled the discussion.

'Changing the whole battery system would void the warranty. I've done this to mine, but it's an older model.'

Some members also shared their experiences of using more powerful batteries, cautioning that it could potentially lead to the vacuum motor becoming damaged over time.

‘Pretty sure Dyson batteries are around 6-9 volts, so putting in an 18-volt would certainly burn the motor out a lot faster. Sometimes things are best left as they are.’ one cautioned.

A member also offered an alternative, 'You know you can get the battery replaced at Dyson stores for like $50...and they last for ages.'

Key Takeaways

• A man has shared a tip to significantly extend the battery life of Dyson Stick Vacuums by using a Makita battery adapter.
  
• With this modification, he claims that his Dyson Stick Vac, which ran for only 15 to 20 minutes, can now vacuum for days on a single Makita battery charge.
  
• Other users responded with both positive feedback and cautionary advice, as using non-Dyson batteries might void the warranty and potentially cause damage to the vacuum motor in the long run.
  
• Despite the enthusiasm sparked by the tip, some members advised that replacement batteries can be purchased directly from Dyson at a relatively affordable price.

Before embarking on this clean crusade, research extensively and weigh up the warranty terms and potential risks.

Food for thought. I'd need some more information as $169 is a lot to out lay for some of us particularly if something untoward was to happen.

I couldnt be bothered to do all that I got a replacement battery from Battery Mate $49 instead of $145 from Dyson it does the whole house plus and still juice left in it. It's the dirt container that's the problem needs too much emptying

 

[Judy HB]

Yes the dirt container still needs emptying. Continuing to vacuum when it’s full is what does the damage!

 

[Rosalie30]

Having paid a fair amount for my Dyson cleaner, I would not mess about with the battery in case it damaged the machine.

 

[Sharson]

I had to pay $185.00 for a replacement dyson battery from Battery World.
