Excellent find and price. I bought the series 1000 one last week for £19.99 and that was a good deal. Wish I'd waited! Hey ho! :smiley:

What the hell? Seems very inefficient.

That's not how efficiency works.....
It is a relatively powerful device - movement requires a lot of energy in a short time period. It also makes a lot of damn noise which DOES make it inefficient. When charging though, the power input will be tiny, so it takes longer to charge the battery than to discharge it. You can get shavers and trimmers etc which will charge far far faster, I doubt they'd be any different in terms of efficiency however. Just having the battery makes the device inefficient.

Is this any good for taking long stubble off before having a shave. The trimmer on my razor can't cope!
