Hi all,
I have a Braun Series 5 bought in December 2019 (without cleaning station); on the back (quite hidden) I can read " PC9008" and "Type 5769"
I have googled "Type 5769" and found that I probably need one of these
It's not the only page that reports something like "Fits Type 5769 Only "
However, I have read somewhere that these only work with shavers originally sold with a cleaning station because the single units don't have the internal chip required. Braun customer service told me the same thing and suggested to buy a new shaver+station, but I wonder if it's just an excuse to make me spend more money.
Does anybody know anymore?
