Wind Up Shavers

— August 20, 2008 — Eco
Are you getting tired of picking up your electric shaver only to find its batteries have run out? You wouldn’t find yourself in that scenario with the eco-friendly wind up shaver.

You would not need to deal with dead batteries anymore since the shaver utilizes the kinetic energy created by cranking. When you wind up the shaver, the internal dynamo generates the energy to make the razor work. Specifically, a minute of winding can generate enough power to run the shaver for up to 2 minutes, and the trimmer for 1 minute.

When fully charged, the shaving function lasts for 60 minutes while the trimming function lasts for 45 minutes. The required time to fully charge the wind up shaver is 8 hours. If winding up is not your thing, you can still plug it in and charge it electrically since the wind up shaver comes with an AC charger too.
Trend Themes
1. Eco-friendly Gadgets - The wind-up shaver showcases an opportunity for businesses to develop eco-friendly gadgets that save consumers money and reduce their carbon footprint.
2. Mechanical Power - The utilization of kinetic energy to power gadgets is an opportunity for businesses to create new products that don't rely on electricity or batteries.
3. Sustainable Personal Care - Eco-friendly personal care products are a growing trend, and the wind-up shaver is an opportunity for businesses to offer sustainable alternatives in this space.
Industry Implications
1. Consumer Electronics - Consumer electronics companies could incorporate more eco-friendly and sustainable features in their gadgets to appeal to environmentally conscious consumers.
2. Personal Care - The personal care industry can explore creating more eco-friendly grooming products to reduce waste and appeal to those who prioritize sustainability.
3. Renewable Energy - The wind-up shaver highlights the potential for businesses to promote renewable energy usage in personal and household care.
