Perifit Care(+) is not rechargeable, and that's a deliberate design choice. Its built-in battery is designed to last at least 5 years of pelvic floor training, so you can focus on your pelvic floor training without worrying about charging your probe.
Why isn't Perifit Care(+) rechargeable?
We designed Perifit Care(+) to be autonomous, so it's always ready when you are!
When developing the probes, we wanted to make training as convenient as possible. We know that pelvic floor training often happens whenever you find a few free minutes in your day. You shouldn't have to check your battery level or wait for your probe to charge before getting started.
Not needing to recharge your probe also means you can take it with you wherever you go, without having to think about bringing a charger.
This design also helps us maintain the probe's usability, including its compact, waterproof and hygienic design.
What about the environmental impact?
We understand that, in a world where we're all becoming more aware of the environmental impact of the products we use, having a device with a non-rechargeable battery can raise questions.
We take this concern seriously.
When a Perifit Care(+) is returned to us, we have a recycling process in place: the device is disassembled and its components are recycled by a specialised company.
We also understand that making our products more environmentally friendly is an ongoing challenge, and it's something we continue to consider as we develop future versions of our hardware.
How long does the battery last?
The built-in battery is designed to last at least 5 years of regular training from the date of purchase.
This doesn't mean your Perifit Care(+) will stop working after 5 years! There is no automatic shutdown or expiry date. Your probe may continue working well beyond that period.
The 5-year period simply represents the minimum lifespan the battery is designed to provide.
What if the battery runs out before 5 years?
If your Perifit Care(+) battery runs out before 5 years from the date of purchase, we'll replace your device free of charge, provided it was purchased directly from our website or through an authorized reseller.
