I was leery about ordering the 30b, when the one I should be ordering was a 51s. But after reading what others said about this one and how it works better, I thought that I would give it a try. It does cost less than the 51s and the reasons given for buying the 30b made since. But my biggest concern was would the 30b fit and work in my Aviator, well it does and it does give a very close shave again. The reason that I bought a new set was because the foil on my shaver had developed a hole in it. So I was trying to look around and find the best price for the correct product and I think that this is it.Another tip for those of you that have the Braun razors that have the alcohol cleaning system, you can save yourself some money by replacing the alcohol yourself. When you have a new container, put it on a level surface and mark the level of the alcohol in the container with a permanent marker, so that you know how much denatured alcohol to pour in when you go to refill it yourself. You need to use denatured alcohol when you refill the container, because the denatured alcohol has less water in it than rubbing alcohol, you can find denatured alcohol in the painting section of most stores. Do not wash out the old containers with water, just try to get out as much of the old alcohol as you can, you don't want any water in the container that you cannot get out. Add one half teaspoon of the lemon oil and one half teaspoon of sewing machine oil to the container and then pour in the denatured alcohol to the mark that you put on it when it was new. Do not over fill the container, the cleaning system has a level sensor in it and if it is overfilled you will have to pour out some of liquid until it will work. Also do not put too much lemon oil in you mixture it will help to take away the finish on the plastic parts. By doing this you can save yourself some money by not having to continually buy the new containers and still have a clean razor.
