Works fine in a Braun 8585 Activator
These replacement heads work just fine on a Braun 8585 (which has the "Activator" system, whatever that is) in case anyone is wondering.  I got a terrific shave after installing them on my 8585 today.<br />I replaced my original foil after 30 months of use, as the cutter finally wore through the foil leaving a hole.  I do not shave every day, as I feel better with a day's growth, sometimes even two or three if it's a weekend.  This probably contributed to the phenomenal 30 month life of the original screen.  For some reason this foil was $5 cheaper than the "Activator" 8000 series foil, so I got it.  Add to it Amazon's free shipping and 15% discount for Subscribe & Save and it is an unbeatable deal.
