Philips 9000 series - replacement heads for less than £15 and a clean.

My Philips 9000 series shaver warned me the heads needed replacing. So, let's find out how?
EDIT: Over a year later, the same set is still giving me a clean shave.

You're welcome.

Great video. I would like less details and talking and getting quickly to changing out the blades. But, great job. Thank you.

[@davidfield2030]

Excellent. Really helpful.

[@RetroBoxRoom]

I'm glad it's help! Mine are only just starting to need changing again.

[@chevyguy6961]

I resharpen mine with a little bit of polishing compound or regular toothpaste, no gel. Just has to have some grit to it for sharpening.

[@andrevandenelsen]

Hello, can you tell me where I can order such a blue mounting plate? Or what is the name of this? Kind regards André

[@RetroBoxRoom]

Please describe the shape.

Wonder how these razors knows when it's time to change the blades.
I have the model with the automatic cleaner btw.

[@RetroBoxRoom]

I'm guessing, it's just got a counter in it, on how long it's been spun for. As I say, just a guess though.

[@MarcoZucchi81]

Are those heads as good as original ones? BTW, where did you find them?

[@RetroBoxRoom]

This past month, is when the shaver has said to replace them. They've never pulled a whisker, through being blunt. I found them on Amazon.

@@RetroBoxRoom Are they as good as the originals?

[@RetroBoxRoom]

Please note when the video was made. I've been using them until now. They gave just as close shave as the original ones.

[@leanderduca1205]

After how many use did the light button coma on ?

[@RetroBoxRoom]

Oh I'd had it for about a year, most of the time I shaved every day.

The replacement cutters are Counterfeits, not Genuine Philips

[@RetroBoxRoom]

They're not counterfeits, because they never try to say they're made by Philips.
Whatever they are, the same set are still shaving my chin.

I have seen those cutters packaged in What Look like Philips/Norelco Boxes. The Real Ones have a different shaped whisker channel on the circumference of the cutter, and, and do not have the Ring of tiny Holes near the center of the foil.

[@andrevandenelsen]

I mean the plate you are working on.

[@RetroBoxRoom]

There are many different types, but I use this one. amzn.eu/d/dtHUzvU
I hope that helps?

Grow a beard. Problem solved! 🤣

I wish I could, but I'll never get to the Grizzly Adams point! Lol
