Yes you can shave with the cord plugged in. I don't know if the battery can be replaced. The shaver has been well used for a few years and the battery is still good.

Don't know if the battery can be replaced, but yes you can shave with it plugged in. Before I bought this I had the previous version for nearly 10 years and the battery has still never quit The reason I replaced is I dropped it and messed up the head. Even now it still runs...

You can shave with the cord plugged in. There does not appear to be a way to replace the battery.

You can use it while cord plugged in. Its not designed to have the battery removed by regular consumers. But it is possible if you have the proper tools and the battery.

You can shave with the cord plugged in, the battery is not replaceable. This is my second Braun's shaver and the battery never has wore out.

Yes, it works just fine to shave with this razor, while it is plugged in. My husband uses it that way too.

Yes, included is a power cord. cord/cordless: you can shave with the unit unplugged or plugged in.

yes, it does work with the cord & the battery discharged. In fact, I believe most of my old chargeable razors such as norelco, panasonic, etc., worked corded with the battery discharged. Thanks for asking

It has rechargeable batteries and they can be replaced. I decided batteries are not for me, so on Amazon I bought two of these plug-in, no charging, no batteries, called DA-57. But if you want rechargeable this shaver is less than $30 online, new, at Kmart. It was still on their website today (6/21/15).

The charger is a brick that you plug straight into the wall, not a cord or anything you could use while shaving if that's what you're asking. The shaver sits on top of the brick when you plug it in.

Steve, once the razor is charged (with the cord), you can use it with or without the cord.

Yep, but the cord isnt very long, and its kind of annoying to shave with it. But it works if youre in a pinch and need to shave but your battery is dead. It can also "quick charge" if you let it charge for a few minutes, it will last long enough to get a quick shave in.

It comes with a charging cord, but when you shave it is cordless. It is a very good shaver and the charge lasts a long time!Don

Best electric razor ever. Afraid that I do not understand your question. It is a standard kind of cord. It plugs into the stand which holds the shaver while not in use, during which time it charges the shaver. Cord serves no other purpose.J. Pierpont Tipton

Yes it is cordless, cord to charge. Works at full charge at all times plugged in tho, takes about 30min to fully charge. Easy to clean. This is the best shaver on the market. Easy to use. Just about as close as a straight razor

Yes, the shaver still works with the cord after the battery no longer works. That is what happened to my last Remington shaver. It wouldn't hold a charge, so I just used the cord.

At this time, the battery is not replaceable. It is rechargeable, comes with a base that plugs into the wall, and you set the clippers into it; and it has a cord you can plug from the wall to the clippers for direct use. If left on the charger when not in use, the battery will actually outlive the blades. The blades are replaceable, just go to wahl (look in pro tools on their site), and you can get the current blade part #, and a list of places that sell them. I think they are about 12 - 15 dollars. My husband swears by this particular model, because of its long life, precision fine toothed blades, and the ability to replace said blades for very little, about once a year or less.

Yes. I've used it while it is plugged in. When you says "use it uncharged", I assume you mean use it when the battery has been drawn to a very low level. If you plug it in, it will start charging the battery and when you turn it on, it will stop charging while allowing you to shave and when you turn it off (while it is still plug in), it will resume charging the battery. Hope it helps.

Thanks for the reply. I won't worry about leaving mine plugged in when I'm out during the day. It takes very little time to charge so I've always hesitated to plug it in and then leave the house. Like you, I don't have to shave 24/7.Thanks again.

I have never had an electric shaver battery fail so I don't expect that will be a problem here I also have never seen one with a replaceable battery, although some do run with the cord plugged in The charge is excellent I use it every day and only recharge about every 2 to 3 weeks Pete, I don't think you have to worry about the lifetime of the battery, but always keep the receipt and if something goes wrong, contact the company they may just replace it

You can run it while its charging, but not sure if that is recommended by the manufacturer. Mine will charge pretty quick though, enough for a quick shave.
