Time to change out those tired cells in your Braun shaver! Another electronic device saved from the bin

I’ve still got this baby and running well after 25 years

Excellent video tutorial. I used batteries with tabs. The tabs were too wide but I just cut them smaller with scissors to fit the slot. The blue lens at the bottom indicating charging fell off on 1 of the 3 shavers I was working on and it won't stay in place now. It's not a big deal. I'll at some point glue that into place.

Should mention a soldering iron is needed! I was on holiday when mine packed and the funny thing is I always forget the soldering iron! Tried it when I got home and yes working so thanks,

Hi Simon, Do you have instructions on re-assembling the front blade/power button? Cheers

Can you please make a video how to change or repair the trimmer ?

I have a Braun 7680, very similar to the one in your video. I got everything apart with no issues, but it appears that the battery board has some sort of clear coat that was "painted" over the top of the solder connections (and most everything else on the board) after it was assembled. Any idea whether it's possible to remove the coating without damaging anything?

How much would this cost to do? I would rather have someone do it for me. Is that possible?

Thanks for sharing :o)
