I noticed your e-mails this morning. Most of the time I grow my goatee and shave it down to where it looks like it's been there a couple days. But I was curious myself. I Shaved yesterday morning and this morning when I shaved it took about half of it off. It was pretty darn close have a good day I hope this help PS I normally just use the number two attachment myself.

Yes, if you use the cutter without the plastic guides. There are two guides that come with the unit. The closer one cuts to about 1/4 inch. The other cuts longer, but I haven't used it, so can't say how long that would be.

honestly don't know if there is a point where it will cut out ... I've had it on up to a couple hours at a time - in a small bathroom - and never had a problem. I open the whole unit up at the beginning or Autumn each year and vacuum it all out really well.

The circle changes with the distance you are from the target. in close its is small and widens the farther you move from the target. In daylight, at around 50 feet, its limit, it is about 12 to 18"..Guessing, as the circle is very dim and hard to see. Personally, I found it too heavy and awkward. I prefer the smaller reg laser.

About .5 - 1mm will still show, but that's going to be the case with any trimmer...nothing's going to get it perfect. This is about as good as it gets...though obviously a little more cumbersome and time consuming than a battery-operated trimmer. I hate having to buy and keep batteries, so this is still worth it in my opinion.

I concur with everything that Bonnie has said, especially the length of time it holds a charge. I would add that I've cut heavy fiberglass fabric and mat, with no problems. If you need a precision cut, I would still use a straight edge for a guide.

Not counting personal factors, like how steady your hand is, I would say this one would be good. I have not tried it myself, though. The twin lights at the bottom of the motor would be the big plus. There are no shadows, so it's easy to see the line you're following. The base is more like 4" instead of 6", so consider whether that's a plus or minus to your personal style of working.

Not great, but usable. It can be adjusted, has red lights built in that don't give much light. Problem is it keeps cutting in and out, even though the receiver & transmitter are only about 3' to 4' apart. I'm not taking the time to take it out, but I definitely would not buy again.

I agree with John's answer, you can cut with out any spacers (just be careful) and this will give you a close cut.

I do cut mine out. It will look much better if you do. You just have to cut around the image. It doesnt have to be exact.

I have the 6.5' and IMO I wouldn't say the ends are VERY sharp. They curve at the end and when I rub my fingers over them or tap them, I can walk away without a cut.

I have cut 3/8 inch plexiglass, and it did just fine. It is not a machine for heavy daily use, but if you need it for home use, it does great.

I do know that if something is five inches or closer and you have the light in the motion mode it will shut off. So it can be frustrating at times when you may move your head when repairing something and the light shuts off. This light is well worth the money. Any time you can use hands free lighting it makes life so much easier.

Yes, to trim a longer beard this trimmer should work fine. But if your going for the 5 o'clock shadow, this trimmer won't cut close enough.

Not going to happen unless you cut it. It has a minimum 6' squish. It is made for floor to ceiling use. Didn't know that when I ordered so we ended up cutting ours down.

It trims very close. I use it to shave my head. It cuts very close to the skin. It looks shaved from a few feet away. I'd guess it is about 1 mm or slightly less. If you intend on shaving smooth, it is a very good prep going from longer (1/4 inch or more) to fully shaved head.

there is a shadow adjust setting. you can find this on the screen menu but anything more you have to go to the instruction book and god only knows where that is now.
