Lid for blades
The lid prevents contamination of the working nozzle of the remover and its contact with foreign objects. This piece of equipment is useful for storage and transportation. Of course, with proper packaging, the remover can be stored/transported without a lid — however, such packaging is not always available, and the lid, in turn, often allows you to do without improvised packaging at all.
Number of revolutions
The speed of rotation of the motor of the remover, expressed in revolutions per minute. The speed of movement of the blades directly depends on this parameter, and on it, in turn, the quality of lint removal: the faster the blades move, the more efficiently the lumps are cut.
Power source
—
Mains. Operated through a standard 230 V socket, this type of power supply offers nearly unlimited runtime due to constant network voltage. The only breaks needed are to change processed items and allow the device to rest. However, the limitation lies in the inability to operate without sockets and the restricted mobility imposed by the power cord. Consequently, this power supply method is rarely used on its own and is typically combined with battery functionality.

Battery. Running on a standard, often built-in battery, this power source allows the remover's use without relying on nearby outlets. The absence of a network cable is an additional advantage. Although battery-powered devices are somewhat heavier and pricier than their network counterparts, the difference is minimal for lint removers and can't be considered a significant drawback. However, it's important to note that recharging the battery requires a power source, and the process is time-consuming once the charge is depleted. Additionally, battery-powered models are more costly than those with replaceable batteries. As a result, this option is relatively uncommon.

Batteries. Operating on standard replaceable batteries, typically AA, though alternative options may be available. These batteries enable autonomous device functioning, with the advantage of swiftly replacing a depleted batte
...ry with a fresh one. While battery-powered models are more affordable initially, they incur ongoing expenses as batteries need periodic replacement. Despite this cost, given the infrequent use of lint removers, it's not a significant concern, and the quick battery replacement feature proves beneficial. Additionally, rechargeable options are available, though they come at a higher upfront cost, eliminating the need for frequent battery purchases. For various reasons, batteries are considered the most convenient power source for lint removers.
