It's likely a pretty inefficient design that requires two horsepower to
lift some dust.

You can dial the power up/down as appropriate on mine, for DIY cleanup
it's often on max, if I see the same model going dirt cheap in the final
days before they become "illegal", I'll buy one ... the hoover aisle in
curry's is full of £100 off signs.

You are not actually dialling up any power. You are just wasting more or
less.

That depends on how the power is being controlled.
