Had an old Wahl just die after probably a good 20+ years, kind of looks like the cable is frayed and splitting where it connects to the trimmer. Did a quick check online and the new products don’t even look remotely similar.

Just using it for normal hair cuts at home, any recommendations?

Edit: Preferably on the budget side.

    The picture came thru great, and I think that’s fixable. A couple starting questions are: can the trimmer be easily opened up/ are there obvious screws keeping the housing together? Is the plug polarized? if you’re in the US this means one of the prongs of the plug is larger than the other.

    Edit: i’m gonna try and find a video tutorial or something on this as I think explaining via forum post might be kinda cumbersome, but I am down to try and help you through it.
