Today's confession is about clippers. So, I've had the Wahl KM Cordless for many years now. They last forever because I hardly ever use them. I used them a bit this summer to trim legs, but then they sat for awhile. And when I went to plug them in to charge in preparation for clipping Shiny, they no longer would charge. I've been wanting a second pair, because I'm the world's slowest clipper and I can't get a horse done on one charge. They do work plugged in, so it's not like all is lost, but I find the horses are more at ease without cords wrapping around them while we clip. I took this as my sign to finally get the second pair. They don't make the KM Cordless anymore, but they have a new model called the KMC+. They're the same price as the old ones, so I figured I'd try them. They are wonderful. They clip so much better than the older model. I did half of Shiny with the new ones before the battery died, and then switched to the old ones for a bit so the new cones could charge back up. And the old ones really didn't clip as well. I even put brand new blades on them. So my confession today is two fold. First, half of Shiny looks a lot better than the other half. And secondly, now I want a second pair of the new ones. But I'm not doing it! At least not right now. Maybe next year.
