Shaver points and electric toothbrushes

David WE Roberts · 2012-08-23T15:32:03+00:00

I thought that shaver points were fine for charging electgric toothbrushes.Well, the Braun toothbrushes come with a two pin plug which seems designed for shaver points.Reading the Screwfix reviews on the MK shaver point it seems that it is not designed for continuous use and overheats if you leave an electric toothbrush charging.This cracks the faceplate.So does anyone know of a suitable shaver point?Used to have one in the last house which was fine but I an't remember the make/model.CheersDave R

I've only ever used the 240V socket for my toothbrush and never had a problem.

You may get shorter life out of it than you would otherwise have done.
