Can I shave while the cord is plugged in with wall power only?

I'm not sure I understand your question. I have a charge base for my shaver, the plug is plugged into the base which is plugged into the wall. My unit doesn't plug directly into the wall.

You can plug directly into the unit or it has a stand that you can put the plug into, also. I plug it directly into the razor while I'm using it and you can actually hear it losing power while it is plugged in. I would not use the term 'charging' for anything about this unit.

yes you can shave with the razor plugged in but no need to. The charge lasts almost a month when you shave with it unplugged. There are a series of lights on the razor which indicate the level to which it is charged (ie 100%, 80 % etc)

No. I don't believe any of the Panasonic Arc shavers operate in "corded" mode. You must first recharge it.

No cord is used for shaving operations. There is a cord to recharge the battery, and a recharge is good for weeks.

YES - The cord that plugs into the charging/renew station is used to charge the shaver when you are away.

It is a cordless razor. It comes with a cord so that you can charge it, but you have to use it cordless. I do not think you can use it while it is charging, i.e. plugged in.

You can use the razor while it's plugged in. The battery indicator light will blink green while it's charging and remain solid when it's fully charged. After 30 minutes it will go out to save electricity. When ther is aproximately five minutes left of run time the battery indicator light will go to orange to let you know it's time to recharge. Tom

If you run the battery completely down so that it doesn't even start, you will have to plug it in for a minute or two before you can start shaving. Other than that its pretty much plug and play.

You don't need to take the stand or have canned air. This Panasonic charges directly from its wallwart power supply without the stand. You can leave it at home. Furthermore, all you need to clean it while traveling is liquid soap. Put some soap into the shaving surface, get the hot water running, start the shaver but hold down the "on" button a little longer than usual. The razor will come on running extra fast to help clean itself. I'd only take the power supply if I were to be gone longer than 3 weeks at a time (after a full charge, of course).

You could but it would be very clumsy, the wall mount would "bounce" around as you stretched the cord to your hair. I suppose if you had drawer very close and high you could fasten it in there so not to have it visible but then...how to plug in unless you did each time. Then it would be easier just get a hand held dryer. So, NO is my answer!

Yes! It's a plug that goes from the unit to the wall socket. 1st time it takes 4 hours thereafter discharge through use and then charge for about an hour. You CAN charge for a shave in 5 minutes or so but the above is best for longevity of the battery. If you want, go to braun.com and click the link for the owner's manual in the lower left. Hope this helps!

No, and I recommend you stay away from this shaver. It does not tell you how much time is left and it does not work while it is plugged in. And the saddle that it sits and easily disconnects from the power cord without you ever knowing it unless you pay attention when you plug it in to be sure the charge light goes on. And then there's the basic design flaw that makes the head open up so that all the stubble falls over your lap.

I like the razor and keep it charged most of the time.... saying that, you might want to keep the razor plugged in while shaving. There doesn't seem to be any loss of cutting power while you groom yourself.

NO. The cord is only for charging, and must be removed in order to use the razor. Kind of a nuisance if you run out of battery charge when half way done.

It isn't really a "stand", but rather a wall plug-in, and the shaver plugs directly into that. Because of that, there is no need for a cord.
