I have a Braun Syncro 7505 model that is 3 yrs old. I use it 4-5 days each
week. I have no idea whether this unit has easily replaceable batteries, or,
like so many other things, the idea is for you to discard it and get a new
one when the batteries fail.

How long should they last, and, how easy is it to replace them when they
die? The cutter / foil replacement is so damn expensive on this thing that
it should be kept viable just for the investment made in THAT.

Thanks,

Batteries for rechargable shavers can usually be replaced.(I've done
it for the various Norelco's I've had over the years.)
You'll have to open the unit up to see exactly what type and size
batteries are in your Braun.(Sometimes you'll get lucky and they'll be
standard size batteries such as "AA" or "AAA's )

Here's alink or two:

It's always cheaper to keep it going, especially at the price they
stick you for on shavers these days.
