advanced in technology and as reliable and powerful as my former ES 8026

In previous years, an absolute Braunfan in matters razors accompanied me the ES 8026 Panasonic for many years reliable and loyal, very unlike my last brown. After, as in those parts common and to the extent no matter what brand, spare parts are often more expensive or almost as expensive as a new razor, but I have not thought long long wanted because I just wanted to have a waterproof shaver without a (incidentally, often very costly to entertaining) bulky cleaning station. Was it all these years with detergent and water well, why should it not go so today.

Unfortunately, the lower-priced and targeted me ES7101 showed no real progress in shaving technology and makes plus 3,000 vibrations per minute less than my former 8026er. So I found this ultimately ES-LT31, which then appealed to me especially because of 13.000er vibration and the linear motor.

Pros and Cons:
+ Class, waterproof Body
+ Very good working and sharp shearing blade, which with my way or betagteren stubble has no problem
+ As far as well-functioning trimmer, the packs also thinner hairs
+ Fast battery charging time
+ Li-ion batteries and thus long term
+ Reliable indication of remaining capacity (here save power, since only display when switching on / off appears)
+ By linear motor (had the 8026er also) no variation of vibrations, even with decreasing battery performance
+ Easy cleaning (ultrasonic mode works fine)
+ Good price / performance ratio

0 not really optimal attaching the trimmer (the 8026er they pushed him to the top, which I find much more effective; however, think that this is related to the nowadays usual inclination of the shaving head;)

- Sorry, no charger

This shaver is incidentally also good and securely in your hand and the spring-loaded cutting head can be guided fine on cheek, chin and neck, but certainly something is depends on the facial anatomy) Very welcome my name the arcuate shear foil me over the old, easier in several places the shaving.
By the way, as "ES-LT31" often not indicated, "WES9013" is the correct replacement for shear blades and foil.

As for the quality of the shave as such it will probably be too "Bart + face" of "Bart + face" differently; I for one am absolutely satisfied, which should be noted, however, that I'm used to shaving with such a shaving head for decades, the (dry).

For me a solid and robust unit with no frills. Thus, as here already several, also a "highly recommended", as well as 5 star.

Note .:
Since this shaver uses a linear motor, he shaved almost constant "thrilled" to the end and then suddenly out. Therefore, you should charge the shaver when it indicates 20% remaining capacity. If necessary, however rich about 5 minutes charging time to finish the shave.

... By the way, I know not a single affordable and also very expensive shaving, really a wet shave with a knife (except razors or Sword) can offer Parole;) However, knows the electrical rule, so the film is not broken , no bloodbaths :)
