I have a 12 year old Philishave and a 3 year old Lidl shaver, both used
only very occasionally, Philishave in the house, Lidl in the caravan.
Each has a charge remaining display and both will still show 100% if
unused for many months.

Best electric shave I've ever had was from a mains only Remington
shaver with a proper 240v motor, cutters moved violently side to side at
50Hz.

These whizzy electric motors and cams (or whatever) don't have the force
(mass * acceleration) to undo my cave man look.
