    Great Job. You make it look so easy. I have 3 Norelco Razors so at some time I probably will be replacing the batteries. Thanks for all the information & it was a really quality video. People really don't realize how difficult it is to make a good video that is focused correctly & clear & easy to see all the details. Thanks again. Sincerely, JAMES.

    The solder sucking was satisfying to watch ... nice job, Tom 👍👍👍👍

    I think it is very important for safety reasons that you don’t give the wrong information about batteries as they don’t all use the same charger and if an unsuspecting novice on your advice would put it the wrong battery you can make the things go booooom. Another thing I noticed was the way you put the screws back in there holes by straight away turning them clockwise and by doing so you can damage the thread in the soft plastic. ( called stripping the thread ) These screws are “ self tappers and if not put in their proper groove can render your hole useless . My advise “ insert screw in hole, insert screwdriver into screw , turn anti clockwise and put slight pressure on screwdriver until you hear a slight “ click “ which means the screw is in the groove of the tread and now go clockwise and tighten screw !

    Appreciated your detail. All looks same as my 8240XL except my battery is Lithium Ion 3.7Vdc 750 mAh . I liked the demo of the solder sucker. Wish I had one; but, I opted for the less expensive (will seldom use) solder wick. My battery tabs do not match length or width so will need to trim both. My less expensive (older model) Reflex Plus 6617X uses the 1.2Vdc Ni-MH battery, but, your instructions came in handy for both shavers. Note: I removed the battery w/o noting the polarity. Your mention of polarity answered the remaining question I had before finishing my battery install. Thank You

    Very well done. I accidentally dropped mine in 2012, and broke the part that flexes and holds the blades in place. My girlfriend replaced it with a cheaper one from Sam's Club, which only works when the charging cable is disconnected. I'm very happy with my current razor, but I definitely miss my XL. I recently tore it apart to repurpose, and make a personal fan for my daughter. The unit works as well as the day I bought it, but now it has a new reason for living. My XL is easily the best I've ever owned. Thank you for this video.

    Excellent video, good quality and smart placement of shaver. Easy to follow. I think I will give it a try. Mine is a Phillips Philishave wet model (pre Aqua touch), at least 15+ years old, so doesn't owe me anything. The battery life is 2-3 shaves, and replaced the blades once so no complaints. Just in case, I bought a new model (on sale) ,but will keep the old shaver as a spare for travel.

    Fighting against obsolescence! Great tutorial, thanks

    Thanks, Tom. I have a System 7000 shaver that I am refurbishing. It is a little different in assembly detail, but your video worked for me. It was not too technically difficult at all. I appreciate your time in making the video. The Li cell is standard in my model, and I am pretty sure that your original (at 4.0 Vdc) was actually Li also, and the charger should be Li specific also (for safe operation); but, I can only be certain where my own unit is concerned. No matter though, the process was still good and applies. Thanks again! Steve M

    THANK YOU for actually telling us what Tool you used (T9). Watched numerous other videos whether they didn't even say what tool they were using. Good job!

    Excellent video! I have a 8170XL that just stopped working and have used your video to remove the battery, and have the new one on order.

    Nice presentation, thanks! As with automotive repair, it looks like more than half the battle is having the tools on hand to do the job!

    Good video, very helpful. It was easy to take apart. Unfortunately the tabs on the new suggested battery were ore than twice as thick than the original and a bear to trim down. Also, on my 3000, I had to unsolder the two small wires so I had access to the battery tabs. Unfortunately, the solder sucker did not want to draw out all the solder from the tiny holes. I had to poke the wires into the holes while holding them in small pliers in one hand, solder gun in the other. A minute and a half to take it apart, hour and a half messing with the battery and wires, a minute to put it back together. Just a tiny bit tedious! Haha! It’s good to have a hobby. I’m not a fan of all the planned obsolescence these days.

    Good man - nice and clear. You'd think they didn't want us to replace the batteries ; -)
