Tried to repair my #electricrazor from #Philips MG7720 from 2022.
#Battery died and I ordered and soldered in a new one.

Difficult to open up - Broke off plastic lips and needed a lot of force (redflag).

This helped a lot:

In the end I broke the very tiny SMD powerbutton in reassambly cause cheap plastic tilted the PCB. As I don't have a #reflow and not the patience to waste another 2 hours I gave up.

The #obsolescence spirits *sarcasm* took another soul into the grave of my future children.
Now I am back in market for a new razor I guess. Capitalism yay 🌈✨
Suggestions for a more repairable one?

Wish there was a list for #household items for #repairability or something. I know of #iFixit - but they cover mostly computer #electronics

If #Apple ever gets into the electric razor market… well, somebody got there first in design terms, with the MOST Apple-looking devices I think I’ve ever seen (that weren’t designed in Cupertino) : The Laifen P3 Pro and T1 Pro Electric Razors

Barbershop Egee’s “Only Buzz”

I decided to remix the Barbershop b-side with the electric razor tests and make a track of only the buzzes.

I find these sounds very harsh but delectable.
