hansgrohe Vernis Blend electronic basin mixer 100, CR-P2 battery review

The only sensor tap here that publishes its run-on time — selectable at 10, 20 or 30 seconds — alongside its battery type and its working height.

The bottom line The most precisely specified electronic tap in the catalogue — a named cell and a settable run-on — and one that only mixes if something upstream does it for you.

What you are getting

An electronic infrared basin mixer with a stated 100 mm clearance under the spout, a 6 V lithium CR-P2 battery, a run time selectable at 10, 20 or 30 seconds, and a single G3/8 connection at DN15.

The specification nobody else publishes

Run-on time, selectable at 10, 20 or 30 seconds. Across every sensor tap in this catalogue, this is the only published figure for how long the water keeps flowing after your hands leave. It decides whether the tap suits a quick hand wash or filling a cup.

The connection, and what it implies

One inlet. Either cold, or water pre-mixed by a central thermostat upstream. That is stated plainly, and it means this tap does not mix: in an ordinary bathroom without a central thermostatic supply, it is a cold-water tap.

The battery, named

A 6 V lithium CR-P2 — a stocked cell rather than a proprietary pack. Naming it means a replacement can be found in ten years.

What is not published

Sensing range and battery life, as everywhere on this shelf. And no waste is supplied.

What we like, and what we don't

Strengths

  • Publishes a selectable run-on time of 10, 20 or 30 seconds — the only tap in this catalogue to give the figure at all
  • States the battery type precisely: a 6 V lithium CR-P2, which is a stocked cell rather than a proprietary pack
  • States a single connection and what it expects — cold, or water pre-mixed by a central thermostat

Compromises

  • One connection means no mixing at the tap: without a central thermostat upstream, this is a cold-water tap
  • No sensing range and no battery life published
  • Supplied without a waste, and among the dearest taps in this hub

Questions people actually ask

Why does a selectable run-on time matter?

It is how long the tap keeps flowing after your hands leave. Ten seconds suits a quick hand wash; thirty suits filling something. Being able to set it is the difference between a tap that suits the room and one that does not, and it is published nowhere else here.

Does it mix hot and cold?

Not at the tap. It has one connection, and the maker states it takes either cold water or water already mixed by a central thermostat. In an ordinary bathroom without that, it is a cold tap.
