Battery system is a key advantage: most reviews cite two interchangeable batteries (often ~100 min and ~60 min max in low/Min mode) with charging via the dock plus a separate charger, enabling very long total runtimes.
The Gen5 Outsize is repeatedly highlighted for its dual, swappable batteries and included extra charger in some packages, enabling extended cleaning without waiting to recharge. Charge time is commonly cited around 4.5 hours per battery, and the detachable design makes “swap and keep going” a core advantage.
Battery capacity is repeatedly highlighted as large (around 5200 mAh), supporting longer cleans and larger spaces. Auto-docking and charge behavior are described as reliable, with recharge-and-resume referenced in Q-series coverage.
A large battery (often cited around 6,400mAh) delivers long runtimes suitable for large floor plans. Features like recharge-and-resume and fast charging help it finish whole-home cleans with fewer interruptions.
Battery performance is a major strength, with many sources citing up to ~70 minutes in Eco/low power and strong runtimes even in Auto depending on head and floor type; the pack is described as removable/swappable and charging is typically via wall dock or direct plug-in, with recharge times commonly cited around roughly 3 to 4.5 hours.
Battery life is consistently described as excellent thanks to a large battery (often cited 6,400mAh), with long runtimes quoted for vacuum-only and combo modes. Large homes may still trigger mid-clean docking and recharging, but overall runtime is considered a standout.
Battery life is consistently described as long (often cited up to ~320 minutes in quiet mode), with charging around ~6.5 hours in some specs; most reviewers say it comfortably covers large areas before needing a recharge.
Runtime is typically reported around 113-120+ minutes depending on mode and home size, with recharge-and-resume and mid-run water refills; charging back to full can take a couple of hours and double-pass or max modes may require a recharge break.
Battery performance is generally considered strong for a cordless stick, especially in Eco/Auto, and many versions use a removable pack. Downsides include long recharge times (roughly 3.75–5 hours in testing) and very short Boost endurance, making docking between uses the practical workflow.
Runs on Worx PowerShare 20V removable batteries; many kits include a 2.0Ah pack and a fast/quick charger, and larger batteries (e.g., 4.0Ah) can extend runtime, but batteries should be stored/charged in moderate temperatures.
