I know the light at the very bottom of the toothbrush signals when the battery needs to be changed, but what is the yellow signal light above that mean? null

Question

The 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.

The yellow light above that is about the brush head. If it needs to be replaced, the yellow light will be blinking.

Answer

Once your brush head is no longer effective or are worn out, the Brush Head Replacement reminder icon on the handle will blink amber. This indicates that it is recommended to change your brush head.

Answer

You need a new brush head

I think that means that it's almost charged halfway charged needs a little bit more charge before it's fully charged I don't know I could be right I could be wrong but that will that's what most devices do when they're not fully charged yet
