A:AnswerThe reason your brushes cost $60 for an eight pack is because apparently Phillips thinks we are too stupid to monitor the wear of a toothbrush, so they put a microchip in the base of each brush head so that it can track how long it’s been used. It is not only inaccurate but irritating. If you want, you can go on the bottom of your brush head and take a tweezers and pull the microchip off and throw it away. When you do that, you will no longer get that light and you can monitor the wear of your tooth brush like a normal grown a55 person. I attached pictures, the first with the microchip, the second with microchip removed. Hope that helps three years later from the original question.
A:AnswerIt does take some getting used to, but the rapid vibration is what cleans your teeth. Light pressure on your teeth is better than the firm pressure you might use with a regular toothbrush. The Sonicare should have had “easy start” activated when you got it, which starts slow and increases the power over 14 brushing. If you want to reactivate this for another 14, put the handle on the plugged in charger base, press and hold the on/off button until it beeps once, then release the button. It will give a low Med high tone and lights will blink 3 times to indicate easy start is activated.

A:AnswerI had this happen to me recently, it usually means the battery has gone bad in the brush, or the charger has gone bad. Unless you’re very good with electronics, you’ll need to replace either the brush or the charger.
A:AnswerDid you ever figure out how to remove the brush? I have the exact same model and I cannot get the brush off to change the thing and it's driving me nuts!!
