Pulse interval

The time between two separate lamp flashes. The shorter the interval between pulses, the faster you can move the device and the less time the procedure will take.

Lamp life (flashes)

The photoepilator lamp has a guaranteed lifespan in terms of the number of flashes it can emit before it becomes depleted and ceases to function. Ideally, this number should be a minimum of 750 flashes (0.75K). In certain models, the lamp's longevity can extend to tens of thousands of flashes.

Power source

Power supply for the epilator.

Mains power. Operates through a regular household outlet, offering nearly limitless usage as long as there's a power supply. The downside is mobility constraints due to cord length and dependence on available sockets.

Battery. Uses its internal, often non-removable, battery. While this affects weight and cost, it grants the advantage of being usable even without nearby outlets, which proves beneficial during travel and at home. Compared to another autonomous power source—batteries—these batteries are more efficient, suitable for robust and long-lasting devices. Charging is necessary, unlike quick battery replacement, though this isn't a critical concern considering the specific use of epilators.

Network/battery. Essentially battery models with the added capability to function using a power outlet. This way, the device can operate autonomously, and when the battery depletes, it can be connected to the mains and resume operations (typically while recharging the battery). Such combined power supply models are less common due to their infrequent necessity.

— Batteries. Reliant on standard replaceable batteries, often AA-sized. A perk of this type is that a drained battery can be swiftly swapped for a fresh one. However, battery performance is relatively limited, influencing the efficiency and lifesp...an of epilators. This approach can lead to ongoing expenses for fresh batteries, unless rechargeable batteries are used (along with a charger, which might be costly). Consequently, this option is less common, primarily seen in inexpensive models.

Charging time

What is the duration required to fully charge the epilator battery from complete discharge to 100%? If the battery usage is limited to home use for convenience, the charging duration might not be extremely important. However, if the device is frequently carried during trips, it's advisable to consider models with a shorter charging time.

Operating time

The lamp's photoepilator (refer to "Type") can generate a certain quantity of flashes on a single battery charge. A longer operation time results in an extended battery life, reducing the frequency of recharging.
