Me Braun shaver
« on: September 24, 2007, 12:19:13 PM »
Had it for seven years, and it's been great. Got a re-chargeable battery in it so I can have a dump and a shave at the same time. Been a great time saver over the years.  happy088

Sadly, the batterys' charge isn't holding as much any more, which is to be expected I suppose, so I trolled off to Boots to see about a replacement.

"Sorry, it's a sealed unit so you can't replace the battery.
You could try contacting Braun to see if you can get a replacement shaver under warranty".

Yea right. ::)
It's  SEVEN years old ffs. surrender:

It's sadly destined for 'The Box' in the loft.  sad32:

Buy a blowlamp. Quick and cheap. Also special blowlamp shaving mask.

Alternatively, grow a beard.

Quite true. I shave from time to time then get bored with it.
