How to Change the Batteries in a Crest Electric Spin Brush

The Crest electric Spinbrush is now known as the Arm and Hammer Spinbrush, as the product line was purchased from Procter and Gamble in 2005. According to Arm and Hammer, the Spinbrush is the same product but simply uses a different name. All Spinbrushes, with the exception of the ProClean Recharge and ProClean Sonic Recharge, have user-replaceable batteries. The battery type and number of batteries may vary between models, but the replacement procedure is the same.
