Best Ladies Battery Shaver UK

0 comments

Electric shavers for women are powered by two slightly different methods:

  1. Battery powered - the shaver simply runs off batteries that need to be replaced- these are cheaper and also handier for travel
  2. Electric/battery powered - these have a rechargeable battery that gets powered from a charging stand or a USB connection.

Benefits of a Battery Shaver

Convenience - Shaving is fast and easy. It is never as close as wet shaving using a blade but you can shave knowing there will not be any cuts.

Cheap - Compared to most other hair removal options the battery powered shaver is the cheapest. After buying one the only other cost is buying batteries as and when you need them.

Good for Travel - They are useful when travelling as they are small and light and don't take up much room in your luggage. You can also buy suitable batteries in almost every country.

Battery shavers vs Electric Shavers

This is where most mistakes are made so it is really important to understand this. Manufacturers are to blame for this confusion because of the way they label these shavers. Almost every manufacturer uses the term "electric shaver."  However, that description is misleading.

  • Battery Powered - this shaver uses standard AA batteries (1.5V) - these are the type of batteries that you can pick up in most shops and are usually sold in strips of 10 or more. You open the shaver up, insert the batteries and then use the shaver.
  • Electric shavers - these also use a battery. However, it is a rechargeable battery. This battery can be charged using a stand or by using a USB connection. This type of electric shaver is about twice the price of a battery shaver, but you can use the same battery over and over again once it has been recharged.
