Electric toothbrushes have been proven to be at least 25% more effective than manual toothbrushes. These toothbrushes usually have heads which either vibrate or rotate; some brushes also use sonic waves to help dislodge plaque and debris.

There are many different makes and models around and they can be both non-rechargeable and rechargeable. Many of the leading brands use standard cells such as AAA or AA Alkaline, NiCd or NiMh (see the list below); however many toothbrushes out there use specially designed batteries often with obscure product codes not commonly recognised by even the toothbrush manufacturer.

We have had many enquiries regarding replacement toothbrush batteries and for this reason we have begun to build up a database of batteries specifically designed to replace existing toothbrush batteries. Below is a list of both standard and specially designed batteries for electric toothbrushes.

The list below gives some examples of the standard batteries we supply which are used in common electrical toothbrushes:

MN2400 Duracell Alkaline AAA	ANS900 NiMh AAA	RB102297 NiMh AAA	MN1500 Duracell Alkaline AA
ANS2400 NiMh AA	ANS2600 NiMh AA	RB104358 NiMh AA	RB100880 NiCd AA

This next list is the custom packs we have designed to replace existing battery packs found in less standard products:

CPS447	Replaces the Sanyo 3N-600AE toothbrush battery
CPS450	Replaces the Sanyo 2N-600AE toothbrush battery used in Krupps electric toothbrushes.

We envisage that this section will grow over time and if you have any enquiries or any more information regarding this subject please don’t hesitate to contact us via e-mail to quoting ‘Electric toothbrush’ or contact a member of our team on 0191 427 4577.
