Me to the video: "Where the heck am I gonna find a guitar pick?" Also me, 5 minutes later (at the junk drawer): "Where did I get this guitar pick?" Worked like a charm! Power switch had become dislodged from the casing. Googled "how to open Braun trimmer", and *poof" there's your video. Took 30 seconds to open, 15 seconds to fix, 5 minutes to clean. Thanks, man!
I have a similar version with the only difference being an adjustable knob above the power button. With this video I was able to clearly see where I should try to pry it apart with minimal damage. Inside was the same exact battery. I've placed an order for a replacement unprotected 14500 battery (shockli) from amazon.
I guess mine is going in to the appliance recycling bin. I have the same one and ordered the same battery in this video. But mine has 2 smaller green batteries and they 'were' super stuck to metal plates on the top and bottom of each one. I broke one metal plate that connects to the red wire (oops). Tried fixing it, but it won't connect anymore. The batteries are named: SUPPO HS-AAA0 . 75 NIMH 1 .2V 1737
@@matiasmenga9211 The idea is that I won't bring a corded razor under the shower... But being forced to change the battery to use it is just... Planned obsolescence. Plus, very often, changing batteries is a pure nightmare.
Mine is identical, except it has two smaller AAA-sized batteries instead of one. They don't easily come out either.... the contacts are extremely tight, possibly soldered on, but can't tell. They're just unmarked green batteries too, so have no idea what type they are. Any ideas?
I just got the correct batteries with the welded on U tabs. I'm going to solder them to the board tomorrow. Slightly higher capacity too, so hopefully it will hold a charge for longer.
@@alienrefugee51 Hi, thanks for your further information on this trimmer! I have the same trimmer as well but unfortunately I somehow broke the terminal that was soldered on to one of the battery while removing it. Is there any way to fix it?? And is it safe to replace with higher capacity instead of 750mah (1.2v NiMH)? I originally planned to buy Duracell NiMH 750mah so that my charging time doesn't increase!
it is mentioned on it 750 mAh. but I think its hard to replace them since they are welded. you have to unsolder the batteries from the pcb and solder the replacements there.
@@amingholizad I have the same type. Did you ever figure out how to replace them? Shame, I was excited to open it up, only to find disappointment in probably not being able to keep this trimmer going.
I tried to replace the battery according to this guide, but I accidentally switched the poles and put the battery in the opposite direction and the device stopped working. Is damaged the device or only battery? Is there any way to fix it?
There are several versions; the adjustable knob version is 5542, but there are several others that are all the same in design and disassembly. Good luck, it's great to replace batteries instead of throwing away things into a landfill.
To start, my machine Series 7 not charging, not working. When i push the red original battery on wrong position, the machine works normally but without the start bottom😅 But when I push it back, and try to charge, nothing happens. It’s a problem of what?🥹

Came across this whilst looking for something else, thanks! My battery is dying so this is very handy 😊
Thanks for the disassembly tips, though my trimmer was an older model that had NiMh cells, i could replace them and now it works just fine !!
How did you remove the NiMh cells? They seem to be fixed in place
I also have two batteries, does anyone know how to unstick them and what is the capacity of the battery
@@mjsquire you would have to desolder them
2× AAA-Cells à 700mAh, NiMH-Type, sold on PCB with stripes

Many thanks - it's so helpfull. So I had repaired my Braun.
Hello! Is it possible to mod those razors so that they work using main power instead of batteries?
No, because it’s supposed to work under the water. There’s a protection so you don’t get hurt while doing so.

Could you tell me what is the model of the battery to buy it? is that I am looking for which one to buy to replace the battery of my razor please
What are the battery specifications?
I have this one, but inside of this are two welded AAA batterys :(

Ich habe auch wie ihr. es ist fest geschweisst :( Habt ihr Lösung gefunden?
I just ripped apart the solder and put in new batteries and made sure they were touching

I had the exact same problem, did you find a solution? I've been searching for an hour and I could't find anything.
@@lucasdasilva5246 any updates? 👀
Thank you so much
Is it possible to make this work also when wired?
Hello the spring came out of the blade can you explain how to fix that?
