About the Wahl Vapor Switch Hair Clipper
The Wahl 5 Star Vapor Switch is a professional hair clipper for corded and cordless use, designed for close fading techniques as well as seamless fades and bald-head outlines. The brushless HyperShift motor with 2 speeds offers 7,000 RPM in blue mode for fading and detailing and 9,000 RPM in purple mode for bulk hair removal. Adaptive Speed Control automatically adjusts the power to every hair texture.
The new Drift F32 blade with black PVD chrome and DLC coating stays sharp up to four times longer than standard steel blades, according to lab tests. Integrated oil grooves reduce friction and heat for smoother, cooler cuts, and the blade can be set to zero-gap. The metal Rapid Shift taper lever switches without tools between 5 click positions and free-flow adjustment.
