I use an Oral B electric toothbrush also. I can’t remember the model, but its all black. Has indication light if brushing to hard and pulse mode. Battrie last ages before needing charged. twice a day use, use normal toothbrush inbetween.

That no doubt depends how many times a day you brush your teeth and how long for!
I would say I get somewhere around 14-16 days out of my Pro 3

My first oral b electric toothbrush used AA batteries, imo I didn’t find the motor as powerful as ones with inbuilt battery. However I was a smoker at the time!
Use decent quality batteries and it should last longer per set than a rechargeable toothbrush.
Let us know what you think of it after using it 🙂

I use my old one to clean under my toe nails ?
Seriously I have found it useful for cleaning bits and bobs round the house.

May 18, 2023 at 7:21 pm #221726Ouch, lol!
I have a good friend who was a beautician before she retired. She comes round to care for my feet and I would struggle without her.
Mike, buying a “battery operated” toothbrush can become a more expensive option than paying more for an efficient chargeable brush. Sometimes looking for the cheapest option isn’t the best way to go.

May 19, 2023 at 6:47 pm #221821The battery powered toothbrush came this morning was easy to put the supplied batteries in its very powerful and has indicator on head when needs replacing ! Easy to hold too as thick and has grips on the side ! I love it will get cheap Duracell batteries from home bargains when it needs them !
May 19, 2023 at 11:59 pm #221831You can pick up a box of 10 Energiser industrial or Procell/procell intense (duracell ) industrial for about a fiver, with long expiry date, or a box of 5 for about £3.50.
I get mine from pstsupplies mainly, sometimes gadgetowl. Both are on ebay and sell genuine batteries.
They are the same as the equivulent retail batteries but, come in box or loose depending how many you buy, rather than retail blister packs. This therefore keeps the price down for trades!
