The advantage of "motor" type clippers is that they provide a positive power stroke in both directions of cutting (as the blade moves back and forth); The other type of clipper motor is the "vibrator type" clipper which, instead of having a rotating armetured motor, has a magnetic vibrating strip that pulls the blade to one side, and, as the AC ...
