Wahl 5 Star Vapor Switch Cordless Clipper

Wahl 5 Star Vapor Switch™ Cordless Clipper

Two speeds. Total control. Built to adapt to the way you cut.

The Wahl 5 Star Vapor Switch™ Cordless Clipper is engineered for professional barbers who need power for bulk removal, precision for fading, and the flexibility to move between both without changing tools.

Powered by Wahl’s HyperShift™ 2-Speed Motor, the Vapor Switch lets you choose between 7,000 RPM for controlled bulk removal and 9,000 RPM for high-speed precision fading. Adaptive Speed Control™ responds to changes in hair density and texture, helping maintain consistent cutting performance as you work.

The patent-pending Rapid Switch lever gives you another level of control. Choose from five defined click positions for repeatable settings or switch to free-flow adjustment when you want complete freedom over your blade position.

Combined with Drift Technology, premium blade coatings, intelligent LED indicators, and cord/cordless operation, the Vapor Switch is built for barbers who want one clipper capable of adapting to different cuts, textures, and techniques throughout the day.

Why Professionals Will Want the Vapor Switch™

Instead of forcing you to choose between power and precision, the Vapor Switch gives you both. Slow it down when you need controlled bulk removal. Shift to 9,000 RPM when the fade demands speed and precision. Lock into repeatable lever positions or go free-flow when your technique calls for it.

One clipper. Two speeds. Five click positions. Your control.
