what is the difference between the various models? e.g. 1290, 1250, etc

Chris Schuepfer has an excellent internet comparison entitled "Philips 1250x vs 1280x vs 1290x - Best Electric Shavers". Sorry, Amazon won't allow me to give the exact URL but if you search that title you'll find it.

Has to be the same series. You could use a 7950 or something else in the 7900 group.

I have both the 3540 (work) and the 3530 (home). The only difference that I really noted was that the 3540 has a larger interface display panel and all functions are accessed through the touchscreen interface panel. The 3530 has a smaller display panel and touch panel buttons that are used to access the printer's features (there is a number pad and arrows on the 3530 that you use to choose options, whereas on the 3540 you touch items on the display itself). Otherwise they appear to work the same and quite well. I am very pleased with them and would recommend either. As for the cost difference, I don't know. When I purchased them, the 3540 cost more than the 3530.

I have a 125g and the 1400-1500 was too powerful. I exchanged it for the 1050 and it works great. The 1400 was blowing my fish and sand everywhere. I would say the 550 would be plenty.

I believe it's just an older model number. I haven't found anything with any difference between the two of them.

They indicate different specifications, year, processor speed, memory speed etc.

Anyone have ideas? I'm looking at either the newer 810 or last year's 1000 as well. Specs looks similar.Thanks.

I am in the same boat. I found that the 1200 is the "newest" model of it... And don't like it. The 1400 looks slick, but doesn't have too good of reviews. Did you find anything since then? I see you posted in Jan. :)

I truthfully don't know, I remember when I bought it there was a large conversion chart. I think most of them have the same internals as it is though.

I called Omega (it took a couple tries before I actually reached somebody) to ask about the 8004/6 vs 8007/8 their reply was "there aren't any differences worth mentioning." When I pressed further, "you can see from their description they're basically the same. Unless you like the different handle, i don't know why anybody would pay for the newer model." So either a) they're really bad at CS b) the person I spoke to was having a bad day or c) they're just trying to get an extra $30-40 per machine....

Brian, I have no idea if there is any difference, as I have only experience with the "other" model. I just really like the one I bought from Amazon.

I am currently using the TR1200DT model. I am over 350 and it works just fine. That said, they do have a heavier duty model, the TR5000DT, but it's almost $1000 more than the 1200.

The speed is more variable on the 1200 model. If you examine enlarged pictures of both, you'll see a dial on the 1200 that is not on the 1000.

I don't know the technical aspects of the differences since I haven't tried both types with my computer. Sorry.
