Well that has not been my experience. I cannot see charge remaining
displays, but my Remmington has one I know in the shape of a cell. It now
refuses to charge or run from its mains supply, even though it used to.
Modern ones have such a weedy mains unit that you can only charge, not run
the shaver from them.
Bah Humbug.

If you get 18 months out of one then you are doing well, and in the old
ones you could remove the old ones as a pack, and get a new set, most
nowadays seem to suggest you break the shaver to remove the batteries to
recycle then buy a new Shaver, you listening Remington?

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.
