Subject: Re: end-of-life battery effects
Thanks to all who replied. It was indeed a pair of NiCd batteries. I am kind
of like Mr. Borowski, I hate to throw something out that can be easily fixed.
I am going to remove the batteries and continue to use the device as a
mains-powered appliance.
I have replaced the NiCad battery pair in my shaver a couple of times over the
years. My Norelco uses two standard AA cells. It originally had solderable tab
cells, but Radio Shack doesn't normally carry that style. But it's easy to
solder on a jumper strap and create your own battery pack.
This also gives you a good excuse to look inside the shaver; admit it, you
really would like to do that!
