Nozzles

Built-in trimmer. Device for trimming the contours of facial hair. A trimmer is similar to a clipper, but smaller and better suited for fine work. Located directly on the body of the device.

Blade for hair cutting. Removable version of the trimmer (read more about the trimmer above), made in the form of a replaceable nozzle and is installed instead of the main nozzle with shaving heads. Thanks to this, the trimmer can be made wider than the built-in trimmer, and overall more efficient.

Nozzle for ears and nose. The cylindrical nozzle of small diameter allows you to penetrate the inlet and ear and remove unwanted vegetation from there. It is installed mainly on top of the main nozzle.

Universal comb. Such a nozzle can be useful for regular care of the stubble or beard, when you need to trim, shorten, and not just shave. Length adjustment allows you to select the desired value for a particular area or depending on the image and type of "hairstyle".

Fixed combs

The number of fixed combs with different cutting heights included with the shaver. The possibilities of an electric shaver in the field of modeling and styling a beard with a mustache directly depend on this. Advanced electric shavers usually use from 3 to 5-7 combs, while low-cost models may have only one.

Replacement nozzle model

Model of replacement head(s) compatible with electric shaver. This data will be useful primarily when looking for spare nozzles.

Power supply

Type of power source used by the shaver:

Mains. The shaver is typically powered by a household supply of 230 V, though other voltage variations are possible. When connected to this power supply, users don't need to worry about limited device operating time since the razor operates as long as there's mains voltage. This eliminates the concern of battery depletion. However, these razors rely on a power source and the cord can restrict movement. Modern models sometimes feature a hybrid system combining mains and battery power for greater flexibility.

Battery. The shaver operates using its internal battery, offering maximum autonomy without needing an external power source. This design provides freedom of movement by eliminating the need for a mains cable. However, the battery's lifespan is finite, requiring periodic recharging. Inexpensive models lacking charge level indicators during use might pose a risk of running out of power unexpectedly, such as mid-shave, necessitating a recharge wait.

Batteries. The shaver is powered by replaceable elements (batteries). Such devices, in their advantages and disadvantages, are in many ways similar to rechargeable ones: on the one hand, they are autonomous, on the other, the operating time is limited. The main difference is that a “dead” battery can be easily replaced if...you have spare ones with you; the built-in battery does not provide replacement, and the only option is charging, often quite long.

— From the cigarette lighter. Power supply from the car's on-board network through the cigarette lighter plug (or a separate auto socket of the same size). Shavers with this power supply can be charged and/or used directly in the car, which can be useful for those who spend a lot of time behind the wheel.
