capacity into shaving minutes.The energy consumption
and therefore the remaining number of shaving
minutes depend on your skin and beard type and your
shaving behaviour (e.g. the use of shaving gel). If the
number of shaving minutes of the fully charged shaver
is less than 60 minutes, this is completely normal and
does not mean that the battery capacity of the shaver
