Do I really need to charge my Philips Sonicare toothbrush for 24 hours the first time?
Hello,
This brush is supposed to have a rechargeable Lithium-ion battery, and here is what Philips say on their website:
"Although Sonicare toothbrushes are fully charged at the factory, you should charge the handle for at least 24 hours before using it for the first time. Store your Sonicare toothbrush in the charger base when it is not in use and leave the charger base plugged in for maximum brushing power and a long battery life."
So, do I really need to wait 24 hours before I can use the brush, as it has no memory effect?
Thanks!
"Read the instructions" does not really help, thanks. Kindly read the question.
YES...When you charge it fully, it sets the battery to work for maximum amount of its lifetime... if you dont it shortens the life span of the builtin battery drastically... Just like a cell phone
