Hello group,
I recently purchased a Norelco 8140XL rechargeable rotary shaver.
Aftter only two weeks I lost the adapter on vacation and can't charge it.
Would anyone know the voltage/current/polarity so I can hardwire
something to the base?
Thanks.

Hi...

This page shows (under specs, 'bout half way down) the input voltage
to be 12 volts dc, and the charging time to be one hour.

Perhaps if the batteries are marked as to capacity, you can do
the math to determine the charge current.... (don't forget the
extra 40% for charging efficiency losses)

Take care.
