What is different from the former V-Power model ?

I would also go with the former model. This one has less thicknesses. It is sturdier because of what it is made of, but it doesn't do everything I would want it to.

The difference is the former & cheaper is actually better. This one is stainless steel but doesn't have the adjustable thickness option or the bowl option available. I bought the older version after this one and liked it much better. I hope this helps.

it's just a transformer. what you use the transformed voltage for is irrelevant.

I actually have the older model which has a different base, so I'm not sure. Don't know voltage for either. The newer base looks much better than mine. The old one was very cheap and cracked easily.

Yes Cliff, while I haven't done a side by side benchmark test to compare every feature, this is the new / current equivalent model.

I am happy with the 20v model. I can blow out my 2 car garage, 20 yard long driveway, front porch, screened-in porch and concrete deck without running out of charge at full power (approx. 15 minutes).It is also very light and built well (ergonomically and durable), dropped it a couple of times and no problem.

Absolutely shocking they abandoned the dual voltage adapter. It's not like they would have to re-engineer the entire brush or adapter -- they've been making these things for years! Very disappointing

This is the v2 model. You have the option to switch between two flying modes using the transmitter. One is a little more subdued and controlled compared to the other mode which is full out power with less stability control.

The V550 is the latest model and is replacing the V500...The V600 is an existing model, been out about a year...

Yes, my few years model burned out and I went to Home Depot and bought the latest model which I would guess is the BV005. It is pretty much totally redesigned.

Champion can wire the commercial models for 220 v use and I would highly recommend that over using a converter. rewiring the household models is not done. buying a converter to handle enough power for a 1/3 horsepower load is huge money.

The 3350r velineon system that traxxas offers as a power up grade is the exact as the vxl . So if you bought a velineon system as a upgrade , you have spent more money than if you would have just bought the vxl to start with . I personally would recommend looking into castle creations brushless system instead . Its almost 100 dollars cheaper and you can get a few different power opinions. I up graded my daughters 4x4 stampede to a 3900kv and its geared for bashing . That system pushes it easily to the 45 mph on a 2s 5000mah 20c battery . The 3350 velineon system will push close to 40 mph on the same battery! I hope this helps you out !

I would advise against using a voltage adapter due to the difference in Hertz. And it's not called a voltage adapter, it's called a power transformer.

Either way is OK. I like the variable because I can put the power where I prefer and that is 5 power. I use it for squirrel and I have gone up to 7 power as needed.

Sorry but I'm not know exactly the difference. I had this model and it works very well.

5V, but only 0.5 Ampere in truth!!! This model only delivers a quarter of it's advertised Wattage/Ampere. 2100mA are NOT TRUE!

The shark is 10.8V. I'm not sure which has more power but the shark has been a great little cordless vacuum I have 0 complaints!

Hello, I'm not sure what the "older" model was, ours was a 10" 12v that we loved.The newer model has Smart Power technology. It chooses which power option is most efficient. It will run on AC, DC, has it's own rechargeable batteries and you can also use and addition D-cell batteries. That is something that is now made too clear when you are shopping for them. It has internal batteries and you can add D batterries, so you have the option of 4 power sources. The fan motor is also improved to run on less power...giving you longer run time. It has a USB port also. It is a good fan. I'd shop around, I paid more for ours, but I see you can get them under $45 now.
