QuestionMy husband has the previous model, GB40, will this charge on the GB40 charger or do you have to use the wall plug charger it comes with? Not sure I want it to plug directly into wall so would like that option.
Asked 5 years ago by RN1998.
- Answer I found I had to use the wall charger that came with this new model. The former charger isn’t compatible. I wish that wasn’t the case. Preferred the former.

QuestionI see its adjustable, but does the lowest setting allow. you to "shave" your face down to "nothing" and then use a different setting to trim the beard? Hoping to find an all-in-one so I don't have to pack a face shaver and a beard trimmer.
Asked 2 years ago by T.
- Answer You can get very close to zero on your face with the comb removed. Otherwise the 1mm setting with the comb is about 1mm.
