This shaver was pretty clearly not designed for battery replacement. To open, first remove the screen and blades, and unhook the metal collar from the tab on the back of the case. Then carefully pry off the black inset on the front of the shaver. Underneath it, near the bottom are two screws. Remove these. The case is now only held together by several plastic latches, which can be carefully pried apart with a small screwdriver. The two 2/3A size batteries are soldered to the printed circuit board, which can be pulled out (don't break the wires to the motor) by a little wiggling. The original batteries in mine are 1100mAh, and I have just ordered 1600mAh replacements. The new ones don't have tabs - so soldering them in place is probably going to be a challenge.

Good luck.

My mom got me this razor since i turned 13 and needed to shave. Every time i turn it on it wont shave. there's this button on the front of it that releases a blade and i dont know what its for.

The button on the front releases the long hair trimmer. It is for cutting hair that is too long for the regular shaver foils to shaver

Remington Electric Shaver..How do I disassemble a Model XLR 900. 8BF2-1C. I want to replace the battery.

Unfortunately these rechargeable razors are not designed to be easily serviced by the home user.
Changing the battery will definitely involve a bit of searching for the multiple screws which hold the case together and then disassembling the case to access the battery compartment. Just watch out for any screws which may be hiding under the rubber padding pieces. You will then likely be required to desolder the old battery out and then resolder your new battery back into place.

Here is a link to a site which describes the various methods for disassembling battery powered shavers:

Are there more than two screws holding the front and back together on a Remington R845 shaver?

There are only 2 screws holding the razor together. There is 1 on the back next to the cord plug-in and 1 in the middle of the back (on mine it was hidden under the battery recycling sticker). Once both are removed the back slides off away from the shaving heads.

After two weeks use of my new Remington R5130, now one of the three heads keeps popping off during almost during every shave. Any suggestions?

My R5130 kept falling apart when I shaved. I really like Remington Shavers (Spectrum Brands) and have had good luck with them until the R5130 model.

Two points.
1.) -THEY SHIPPED ME A NEW HEAD ASSEMBLY (BUT)- The original one I got had poorly formed plastics tabs on the blade retainer (head) I Googled Remington Shavers and used their Consumer Service tab to request a fix. They sent me a new head assembly free of charge and yes it worked much better. However, it eventually the heads started falling off again.

2.) RUBBER BAND FIXED IT - I looked it over again and thought that the range of movement and forces on the assembly pieces was just more than the design could handle so I looked for a way to contain some of the movement. I slipped a single thin (1/16"x1/8") - 2" diameter rubber band around the three head assembly and the problem has been completely eliminated. I can shave normally now. The rubber band nearly disappears under the black head flanges so it doesn't even look bad. The shave is a little firmer now but it still has most of the flexibility of the original design.

This simple fix will be a hard one for Remington (Spectrum Brands) to adopt but you might help spread the word. I am sure they will avoid this problem in the next models.

Now remove the Two ( 2 ) exposed screws up near the " Trimmer Switch "
Note: If you Popped off the " Trimmer Switch " during your efforts - DON'T WORRY . It will simply pop back in place when you are finished with your repairs.

Remington es1000

The Remington ES-1000 was probably the best slot-head shaver ever made by Remington. I cannot believe that the market demand was so low as to prompt a cancellation of production. I believe that the production run was limited to about 4 years or so. I have 8 of these shavers and keep a couple old Remington slot heads around as well. The ES-1000 was not perfect. The batteries were way too small and stressed so battery life was poor.You could not buy individual blades as you could with past Remington slot-head units.Also, the edge of the head was too exposed and sharp and when used for body shaving would tend to cut the skin.Slot-head shavers are superior for body shaving and for skin that is suseptible to shaving bumps.They are also great for young men that are prone to ingrown hairs.My guess is that the Norelco 3 head has taken it's place. Those shavers actually use 3 small slot heads. Rumor has it that shavers.com is trying to have a new slot head manufactured in Asia.
