Can you shave with the cord plugged in? (if you forgot to charge it)

No, the instructions say you cannot. I haven't tried personally but that is what they say.

No, but it charges very quickly, so after a couple minutes you have enough juice for a shave.

The shaver should only be used on battery but will work plugged in. However, it will charge enough for one shave in about 5 minutes. I don't remember everything in the box, but you get a shaver, case, charger, instruction book, cleaning brush and oil at least.

Yes, you can travel with razor and use cord to recharge/shave and leave the cleaning unit at home.

YES - The cord that plugs into the charging/renew station is used to charge the shaver when you are away.

I don't think so. The charger that I have is a stand (base) and to try to shave with the stand attached would be very clumsy, to say the least. So, the best answer that I have to your question, is no.

both of them have a power cord. You can shave by battery power, or with the cord, either way.

Yes. I've used it while it is plugged in. When you says "use it uncharged", I assume you mean use it when the battery has been drawn to a very low level. If you plug it in, it will start charging the battery and when you turn it on, it will stop charging while allowing you to shave and when you turn it off (while it is still plug in), it will resume charging the battery. Hope it helps.

Well, it comes with a charger which plugs into the wall and into the razor. If that's what you mean. It runs off the battery so if it's run down you can't just plug in the cord / charger and start shaving. You have to let it charge up a little.

not as is. the cleaning station is the only way to charge the razor as far as i know. you may be able to buy a different stand/charger.

No, you can NOT use it while charging. Since this is a shaver that you can also use in the shower for wet shaving, Panasonic disabled this feature as a measure of safety. If you run out of battery you can quick charge it for 5 minutes, it should give you enough power for a complete shave. Hope this helps.

You are welcome. After 9 days of shaving heavy beard everyday the thing used 60% of its reserve according to the charger/cleaner when I returned home. Took razor, supplied brush and supplied carrying case. Didn't need intrechangable power cord at all.

No.I hadn't tried it until I saw this question. I expected the answer to be "Yes", because my previous Braun shaver (which lasted 11 years) allowed me to use it while it was charging. But the 380S-4 would not switch on with the cord plugged in.On the other hand, the battery lasts a long time between recharges, so the problem won't come up often.

According to the owner's manual, the razor is designed to not turn on while plugged in for charging. Consider the consequences of someone using it in the tub and dropping it. They obviously want to avoid law suits.

Thanks for the reply. I did buy this shaver five months ago and love it. As you say, leaving it plugged in after a full charge doesn't seem to be a problem. I'm sure there are no issues using it with a cord, but it is more convenient to keep the cord stored until needed for charging. I can shave many times on a single charge.For those of you out there thinking about buying an electric shaver, you can't go wrong with this one.

You can but you don't have to. You can get enough charge for a single shave in about five minutes.
