Posted .Hello, this is Kelly with Dyson. I'm happy to hear how much you are loving your Dyson V8. The Dyson V8 Animal cordless is a hassle-free vacuum with powerful suction. The powerful direct-drive cleanerhead removes ground-in dirt and pet hair from carpets, and self-adjusts to pick up dirt and debris from your bare floors.
Dyson V8 Animal also features two suction modes; MAX and standard. While regular power is suitable for most household messes, you may find that some debris is more stubborn to pick up and does require MAX power mode. While in MAX power, your unit will receive a boost of power, making suction more powerful. When fully charged, you can expect run time from 7-40 minutes, depending on which suction mode and tools you are using.
We would value the opportunity to ensure that your unit is performing as intended as we are committed to customer satisfaction. Please do not hesitate to reach out to askdysonUS@dyson.com. We are keen on providing support.
Best wishes,
Kelly

Posted .Hello LorenG, This is Amanda from Dyson. It sounds like your machine may be in MAX/Boost mode. To ensure you're able to receive the full run time your machine can provide, we'd recommend switching off of the MAX suction mode. Hope this helps! Amanda Dyson Customer Support

Posted .Hello there, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're sorry to hear that you've been disappointed with the run time from your V8 Animal. Our cordless models also have a run-time enhancing light touch trigger which ensures battery power is only used when the trigger is pushed. In Max power run time will be up to 7 minutes, and in standard power, you can expect run times of up to 30-40 minutes depending on which tool or attachments you are using. Having a shorter run time does sound unusual, and we'd value the opportunity to go over your machine with you.
Please feel free to reach out to us directly at askdysonus@dyson.com. We are keen on providing support.
