And even then I could make out some small dots of hair clippings here and there. A small water drop icon will appear on the shaver when it is beyond time to clean your shaver. You can just Remington Shaver make out this icon on the shaver display in the picture above. If you want to keep using the cleaning station you will have to buy replacement cleaning cassettes as they run out.
Let’s cover the similarities before uncovering the differences in the two shavers. First, the 3050cc and the 5030s have an ergonomic grip. The shavers won’t slip from your hand when the handle is wet. That’s vital when you’re shaving with foam or gel.
That’s where the similarities between the shavers ends. The 5040s has a precision trimmer on the back of the handle. You don’t need to remove the shaver head, find the trimmer, and attach it to the shaver. You can edge your sideburns, goatee, beard, or mustache. The Series s and cc both have precision trimmers on the handle itself. You won’t lose any attachments for shaving when the trimmer is right on the shaver.
Etched into the trimmer molding are the words “Made in Germany”. Germany is the manufacturing location of choice for all of Braun’s higher-end electric shavers. 1 full charge provides up to 3 weeks’ worth of shaving. 5 min quick charge is sufficient for 1 full shave. The charging station for the Braun Series 5 also cleans the shaver so it’s ready for maximum comfort every day.
Not all shavers in the Series 3 or Series 5 are 100% waterproof enough to take into the shower or be submerged. In terms of cleaning the shaver, the 5190cc has an included cleaning and charging station. The cleaning and charging station of the Series 5 is a 4-action unit.
This makes it incredibly difficult to see what it is you are trimming. As you may have guessed by the name, travel lock is most commonly used when you are squashing your electric shaver into an already overflowing luggage. Oddly enough, the cleaning station looks near identical to that found in the box of Braun’s top end shaver, the Series 9. It’s definitely one of the better looking cleaning docks on the market. My aim with this site is to help you get the best shaving products. Some of you came here wanting to be convinced that you can get a good shave if you stick with your old Series 3.
