My electric toothbrush just failed, i've pried it open and some water must have got in, some of the componants are rusted and it's no longer turning on/off reliably, so i'm not going to try to repair, just recycle the bits properly.

So to a new electric toothbrush.
#AskingFedi Is there a toothbrush out there where I can
a) easily replace the battery
AND
b) buy biodegradeable replacement heads.
I'm generally coming up with one but not the other.

#righttorepair #biodegradeable@AoifeGreenhamIllustrations €2 buys a pack of three toothbrushes and you get the bonus of finger exercise.

@PatrickOBeirne Not everyone is able to use a manual toothbrush good enough not to get holes. An electrical tooth brush is incredibly cost effective for us that have to pay for the dentist ourselves...

@sheddi yep, thats the toothbrush I had. I watched that video to help me get the toothbrush apart and once I saw the word unsoldering I was like nope, theres gotta be a better model.

That's a fair comment!Most of the things I try to fix are more complicated than that - I don't always succeed but I usually learn something along the way
