Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The Things They Don't Tell You are... THIRTY hours for first charge. TWENTY hours for subsequent charges. Only 50 MINUTES, roughly, of use-time before needing a recharge. You must OIL at three locations BEFORE and AFTER each use. Power indicator gives NO CLUE as to its Charge Status. Gorgeous design. Fits well in the hand. Ridiculous charge times and maintenance hassles. I really wanted to like this unit, but life is too short. I bought a Lithium-Ion based unit, instead -- which requires no oil or crazy charge times, and can be used while charging.
