Can I buy replacement heads/batteries for this? I have had one of these trimmers for a couple of years, and the foil is definitely dull.

Maybe you can. I had one previously too but I wanted to buy the whole thing all over just because I use it every day. I have no idea where you would find the parts though.

Probably a good idea to buy a new battery. You might also check the contacts in the Dremel. Try hitting it against your hand with the power on, have found this works as well. Sort of magic!

Line up the arrows, run the line (designated length) through the head so that they are equal length on both sides. Twist the head until the line spools inside...leaving a little on each side. The trick is to not overload. I ran my trimmer hard initially and actually melted the plastic. I've been gentler with the trimmer since then and I haven't had a problem with the replacement. The 3rd party trimmer heads work pretty well. Shakespeare has a nice trimmer head you can use as well if you don't like the Troy Bilt

I have a 1000 series that is still going to this day, its between 5 and 10 years old and the foil is still intact, it has outlasted the internal battery which does still work but not for very long. Will not buy anything but Braun again because other shavers I had the foil always went bad in about a years time of use.

That's a valid concern. Dead battery is the only reason I've changed my Panasonic shavers. I've even tried to change the batteries on my last one, but with no succes. Even tough it's powered by two 1.2 volt batteries, probably the capacity is different from the regular rechargeable battery. However, my last Panasonic lasted for four to five years before the batteries started to lose power. Before I changed to Panasonic, I had the same problem with Philips. Guess the manufacturers are not very concerned about how much trash we put on the planet. At least not yet and not all of them.

The shaver comes without any batteries. It is not rechargeable via an electric plug. But you can use 2 AA rechargeable batteries instead. Sanyo Eneloop rechargeable batteries are perfect for this shaver. In case you were interested, this little shaver is fantastic. Get more than one because to replace the foil costs close to what the shaver costs. The foil will last around 3-4 years. Oil the foil a few times per year with mineral oil or baby oil.

The battery didn't hold a charge after about 8 months.I continue using it plugged in because otherwise It is an outstanding trimmer. I have had 3 or 4 different brand trimmers over the years and all of them have been disappointing as far as battery life is concerned.

Yep. It's light years ahead of the early ones, tho. I put mine through some heavy work and it never failed to feed properly.As long as the head is spooled correctly there should be zero issues. OR, you could opt for an after-market head that accepts different trimmer systems w/fixed "grass blades".

I got a hold of the company directly and they sent me another battery. The first one died about 3 months after getting it and so did the new batteries. Love the knife but the batteries are no good. You can try ebay. Someone may have some extras.

I wish I could help but I've had three of these great little razors over several years. The only thing that seems to wear out is the foil. I have never been able find replacements.

I think your out of luck unless you can find a current owner that has discontinued using Total Trimmer. The manufacturer is long gone.

Don't think you can replace the battery, but I have had my shears for 4 years and it still never loses its charge before I finish (over 1 hr). Would recommend replacing the blades periodically as it cuts really well with sharp blades. Best tool I have ever owned. Good luck

You might be in trouble. GreenWorks has discontinued this model. I now see online that some outfit is selling a trimmer with only a 2.6ah battery, which is not(obviously) the unit I bought with the 6.0ah battery! My guess it's not the real deal.

I've had mine for about a year and have never had to change the foil. I don't shave my head, so I can't answer your other question.

Hi. I've bought replacement heads at dazzlepro.com. They send me e-mails and run lots of sales. I'm really pleased with my electric toothbrush. Hope you enjoy yours.

I bought a set of new blades on Amazon when I bought my razor. I suggest that you buy a new foil also. Change them once a year.
