Hi guys,
I’m a real sucker for older Philishaves, especially unused ones and I recently bagged this one, a super reflex 6-series that I reckon is from about 2006 to 2009.
The shaver still had its original Philips hygiene seal on and the seller said it had never been used. Charging cable, brush and case were included as well as instructions etc.
I unpacked it and plugged it in, expecting the batteries to be dead, but to my surprise it started charging almost immediately! After around 4 hours of charging (per the instructions) I tried it out and it works fine. But that was 2 days ago and when I went to use it the shaver wouldn’t even turn on.
I charged it again and normal usage is restored, but am wondering how long it will last?
Should I just pay for a service to replace the battery, or just use it plugged in (it works both ways)?
