Abstract: A power shaver having a hand-cranked dynamo is disclosed. The shaver includes a battery that can be charged by the hand-cranked dynamo, or from an alternating current adaptor that delivers charge from another battery, or from a charger that connects to a conventional source of alternating current. The shaver includes a foldable handle that allows a user to operate the dynamo, and folds against the body of the shaver when not in use. Indication lights located on the body of the shaver provide charging and status information to a user.
