Can you use the trimmer while it's plugged into the wall and charging?

My experience is that the battery has to have some charge. You cannot plug it in and use it if the battery is completely drained. Even when charging (plugged in) it will only last for a short while before the battery is too weak. So, I suppose the short answer is "no". This is a great trimmer and the best I've ever used.

Yes you can, and that's the way I run mine usually to ensure consistent power to it. Good question

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)

It worked for me while plugged in, but only if I allowed the battery to fully charge. The trimmer would drain the battery faster than it could charge it, it's not like an appliance that would run full speed with cord or battery. The problem was when using it on consecutive days without recharging when traveling, you had to have the cord with you.

Yes you can use it while charging, this is my third one, can't remember the others names but they were pos. This one is the best by far.

Yes, it will still operate while it is plugged in with the charging cord. This has happened to me a couple of times. I was nervous about this myself because you don't need to cut/shave your hair and get halfway done and can't finish.

Yes, you can. I've tested the charger while connected to a Watt's Up power analyzer, and once the batteries reach a near-full charge, the amperage the charger pulls in begins to lower. Once the batteries are fully charged, the power analyzer shows 0A of current flowing between the wall adapter and the charging base, meaning the batteries are no longer drawing a charge and thereof are not overcharging. You'll be fine leaving them plugged in, though I wouldn't keep them plugged in for days on end just because you don't need them to trickle charge and lithium batteries have a very slow self-discharge when being stored between uses.

You will be able to do all the trimming you need to do. Just plug in the Charger and leave it charging till the light turns green.However, Even though you do this, it never hurts to plug it in and give it a 10 minute charge (just) before you use it. If you have been using gas trimmers, you are going to love this thing.

Yes. There's a battery you're move when you need to charge it. Kind of like a cordless drill.

Yes, It can be Used while it is being charged. And its working perfectly as well.

Yes. You can use it while charging. Only wish there was some indicator light or audible message that tells you how full the battery is. Maybe they have that in the newer model.

Yes you can. (That's how I used it for the first few months) the power core that you use on the cleaning station is the same cord you can use to just charge it on travel.

I can't answer if it's recommended or not but yes you can use while it is plugged in.

No. And reading the instructions makes it clear that you should use only the cord to charge the battery. It is recommended to charge the battery only when it is completely dead to extend the battery life. One reviewer confirmed this trimmer won't run with a dead battery, even when plugged in to the charger cord.

I'm not sure if you're able to use it with the cord as I've only used it on the battery after it's been charged. I have only used it to trim my beard but as my beard hair is thicker than regular hair I'd imagine it'd work just fine on hair.

Yes, you just plug it into an outlet to recharge it. But you cannot charge something while you are recharging.

Yes! I've charged my phone or my iPad while it was plugged into the wall! Just don't forget to push the on button or else it won't charge whatever is plugged into it

No you are not able to use while charging. Once you plug it in a safety switch prevents it from being used while charging. Hope this answers your question
