Non-rechargeable alkaline batteries, on the other hand, can have quite a bit of variability in their discharge rates and how well they maintain their voltage during discharge. Most of them last long enough to make the total cost come out to pennies per charge. Looking for a good sale and picking up a few of any type is always a good idea. When it comes to rechargeable batteries, there doesn’t seem to be a clear winner regarding quality and discharge curve. However, those batteries are not rechargeable.įor rechargeable batteries, we recommend the Philips recommends using Polaroid AA batteries for the best performance.

The downside to these is that if you ever decide to upgrade to one of the higher tier Sonicare models, then you will have useless brush heads. The brush heads are relatively expensive compared to the price of the toothbrush itself, which is somewhat discouraging, but you have to replace brush heads no matter how much you spend on the handle. It’s recommended you change the brush head every 3 months, so you’ll only need to buy new ones about once per year.

For example, the DiamondClean or InterCare brush heads do not fit the PowerUp Series toothbrushes. These brush heads only fit the PowerUp toothbrushes and none of the other Sonicare brush heads will fit the PowerUp models. Since you’re going to be attaching these brush heads to the end of a rapidly vibrating metal shaft, they’re completely useless if they don’t fit right. We recommend sticking with the genuine Philips Sonicare brush heads, because the generic brush heads sometimes don’t quite fit right. The HX3013/64 (blue/orange) brush heads are the medium type, while the HX3013/64 brush heads are the soft type. We’ll get to that after discussing the replacement brush heads. One way to improve your experience is to choose the right batteries. The PowerUp models are indeed on the cheap side of the Sonicare toothbrush spectrum, and we think the power and performance are adequate for an electric toothbrush that costs little more than a case of beer. However, the PowerUp handle is larger than other Sonicare models since it has to fit two AA batteries, whereas the battery is integrated into the other models. What we can tell you is that they’re no larger than any of the other Sonicare brush heads, so this seems to be false.
Some people complain the brush heads are too big, while others complain that they’re too small. The PowerUp series seems to be somewhat contentious, and some people love these toothbrushes, while others find them to be underpowered or overpowered (depending on who you ask). So you shouldn’t expect the same performance from the PowerUp Series as you would get from the rechargeable Sonicare toothbrushes. Regarding performance, the PowerUp toothbrushes produce about 15,000 strokes per minute, whereas most other Sonicare toothbrushes produce 31,000 to 62,000 strokes per minute. This is a common theme with many of the different Sonicare Series brushes, and you will find there are only small changes between different models in each series. However, do notice the Pink Model (HX3631/10) comes with the Soft brush head, whereas the Blue Model (HX3631/06) comes with the Medium brush head. The difference between the two models is more aesthetic than performance. Philips Sonicare PowerUp – HX3631/06 or HX3631/10
