Q: The new Philips shaver comes with a 'cleaning unit' that uses special cleaning fluid, but it runs out quickly and is super expensive to replace. There must be a cheaper alternative than the own branded stuff, or even another household fluid - like contact
A: Just use regular methylated spirit (a.k.a denatured alcohol) from any hardware store. What the Philips (and Braun - for their shaver cleaning cartridges) solution is, is simply alcohol that has been dyed and fragranced. If you wanted to make your own
There’s no low battery warning – it just stops running while you’re shaving. Of course, you’re supposed to wait for this to happen before you recharge it.
I bought a repair part for my old razor, and will go back to using it. I’ll save this one as a backup.

My husband is a hairy man. He is a hairy man and is lazy when shaving his face. When he does shave, he takes a long time to finish; around ten minutes. So I decided it was time I looked for a faster way for him to shave. I was intrigued by electric shavers on the shelves of the specialty stores I visited. I also saw these types on television advertisements. I looked around more and saw that the higher end products were so expensive. So I asked around and told them I wanted to purchase the mid-end shaver. The kind store assistant led me to Norelco / Philips 8260XL Rechargeable Cordless Speed XL Series Shaver. She said that the Norelco / Philips 8260XL Rechargeable Cordless Speed XL Series Shaver came with a base station that doubled as a charger and a cleaner. The base station also lubricated the shaving heads when it is being cleaned. She said in a nutshell that all you have to do is put the shaver on it and walk away. That last sentence sealed the deal! Therefore, I bought it having in mind that I can return it if I am not satisfied with the product.
...California, like the rest of the nation, is addicted to oil. Just like other addictions, heavy oil use comes with a heavy price for our wallets, our health and our climate. The good news is that California and the federal government are taking bold steps to tackle these problems.
They've signed automakers up for a plan to gradually improve fuel efficiency and reduce global warming emissions for cars and light trucks built between 2017 and 2025. California has also proposed new tailpipe smog standards, and hopes are high that automakers won't try to block them.
These steps will help protect public health, cut our oil addiction and save consumers billions over the next two decades, but they aren't enough. If we want our daily commutes to be part of the solution rather than part of the problem, consumers need a different kind of car, one that is not captive to high gas prices and can deliver zero pollution. A strong Zero Emissions Vehicles or ZEV program can do just that.
