Perfect for Manscaping

between this and the king of shaves my hairs better look out.

Carry case = great for travel, although face it, once it is out of the case, it isn't going back in, until the wife yells at me to put it back.

Hmmm... Wonder if this is any good... Can't seem to find any reviews.

Anyone know if this is good for shaving... you know.... without risking damage to... you know....

There is nothing like a home-haircut to build respect from your kids- especially the girls.

Once you fire-up the buzz clippers and the little uns' see that wild look in your eyes- they'll know you mean business.

Yes, dad....

what exactly restricts this product from shipping to al, hi, or apo's?


[MOD: The restriction to PO, APO, and FBO are being removed. See this post for more info.]

One of these and a few beers and maybe I'll give myself that Mohawk I always thought would look good on me.

Great for finishing up after you attempt to use the King of Shaves.

Bought the EXACT unit at Walmart yesterday for $19.44

I got one, I need my hair cut been over 3 years since I had it cut. It is almost down to my waise. I will cut and save it until I go to the 50th class reunion this summer and take it and a bottle of glue and cover up the bald heads.

WalMart claims 22 vs Woot 20 pieces. I think the difference is WalMart seems to come with scissors.

Wally World: Conair 22 piece Cordless/Rechargeable Haircut Kit:

Features & Benefits:
Includes 10 guide combs 1/8", 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 5/8", 3/4", 7/8",1", left ear and right ear guide combs
Includes barber scissors
Includes 2 styling clips, barber comb, styling comb,barber cape
Cleaning brush and neck brush
Deluxe protective storage case

Anyone know what kinda batteries are in this thing and the voltage?

I've have my whale trimmer for well over 5 years but the cordless-ness of this unit is attracting me. Just the thought that I can drop my pants anywhere and add a inch or two to my unit with out the use of a electrical receptacle gives me goosebumps. Lol

My concern is the advertising 35 minute run time. If they advertise 35, maybe it's 30 when new. Given a year it's probably down to 20/25 when fully charged- but the reality is I won't keep it fully charged before I use it so it won't be at full charge. Don't want it dying in the middle and having to plug it in defeats it being cordless to begin with.

No bowl? How am I going to replicate the hairstyles me parents gave me on my kids?

What sort of home haircut kit doesn't come with a bowl? Grrr.

Awesome! Now I can cut my hair while driving to work.

As long as I can do stuff like this, I'm all in:

It has a Turbo button!

Is there any electronic device that can't benefit from a Turbo button?

I would have to guess that it has something to do with the battery, which, if it's lithium, is considered HazMat, and has special restrictions for shipment.

Just in time for Spring Break. Can't wait to see how I look in my Weasel.

I'm a FLOWBEE guy. That way I don't end up looking like those guys above!

You dirty hippy!

I got a pair of these a couple years ago (not exactly the same, a different case, and ni-cad or ni-mh batteries not lithium), and they were absolute HEY YOGI!.

It took hours to get a charge good enough to run the clippers at a speed that could get through my (admittedly thick) hair at a reasonable speed, and the charge wouldn't last through more than half a head trimming.

Maybe lithium fairs a lot better, but I would not trade the new walmart (exact same clippers) corded version for a battery powered one any day. You plug it in and it works, period. Plus, when are you going to be cutting your hair somewhere without an outlet?

*edit* Actually read the specs, and this also has Nickel-whatever batteries. It looks exactly the same as the one I just scavenged for parts. 35 minute run time? Maybe 10, probably less, and anything past that is not at full power. Plus the batteries don't hold charge, so you have to think about plugging it in and charging it in advance (no running off to grab them to shave-prank someone).

I'm in for one, hopefully it won't injure my nards!

My wife has cut my hair for 50 years...think of all the money I have saved.

All you need is clippers, scissors, a comb, and a wife.

Cordless would be great. I finally fixed the cord on our old Wahl clippers. Like old electric razors, it is always the cord that fails after ten years or so of use.

From my own experience, the batteries in this are worth less than 2 years, not used very often. Unless you can drum up 3 nimh batteries and a soldering iron every few years, a 10 year cord is going to serve you much better.

Wife and 2 mirrors are interchangeable.

I have purchased this same set from walmart in the past and I feel it doesn't have the power for thicker hair. It should be fine for thin hair and "general" up keep.

Sellout woot has another option:



(please sing to the melody of "King of Pain")

I got a road rash burn on my face today...
The kind that oozes pus-won't go away...
Has 5 dull blades-caused my face to rot..
In so much pain..I'll need to smoke some pot..

King of Shaves...will blister me
King of Shaves..even hurts to pee

Those would require air shipping, so possibly the tube of lube oil?

Could you explain to this old guy what in the world "Manscaping" is?

If this is anything like my Conair, you can't plug it in. If it runs out of juice or doesn't have a full charge, you're done shaving for a while.

This might help explain, but I'm warning you upfront there are some vulgar expressions there (nothing that offends me, but some might be offended):
