" ...  Blades have less of what gives a good shave on women's legs, but it's better than using a disposable razor.  ...  "

comment
" ...  my old norelco gave up after 11 years, and the battery was still recharging properly  ...  "
comment
" ...  One can start feeling the "Lithium-ion" battery being low on juice at about 9-10 days, but motor still running strong until it suddenly stops at 13-14 days. ... Some people might have issues regarding durability of rechargeable batteries, but from my experience, one has to fully charge the shaver from the beginning and run it until it is completely out of juice/stops. ... Then recharge it again to full and do the same thing a 2nd time. ... Afterwards, just recharge once a week to keep the motor running at optimum.  ...  "
