I purchased the Phillips One that uses a AAA battery and has a small cover it’s much smaller than my sonic are but my gums are thanking me ….

You can do it for a lot less. A Sonicare One (that runs on a AAA battery) is like $15 and just as good as any other Sonicare i.e. really good. My last Sonicare rechargeable lasted -- I shit you not -- twenty years. But I got the One because it was good to have a good toothbrush at work as well as at home, plus it's nice not having to put the thing on a charger (or travel with the charger). Likewise, a generic water flosser that runs on AA batteries is like $40. My Walmart generic one has been going strong for a decade.

Get a Sonicare One. $20, takes AAA batteries, and lasts practically forever. I've got one at home, one for the office, and a backup one in my travel bag. I'll swear by Philips Sonicare. My first one lasted more than 20 years and they still sell replacement brush heads for it.

Searching for the same thing, I ended up buying an AAA-powered Philips Sonicare One, and [this](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CFT759FP) USB-C rechargeable AAA battery.

Like many said already, look at the Phillip's Sonicare one, AAA version. Last a long time, slim, can be taken apart, packs well. That's my travel toothbrush and I love it.

Yes. I have the Philips One brush that uses a regular AAA battery. I carry a spare AAA battery with me but I haven’t needed it. It can go into checked luggage. It’s really small and doesn’t take up that much more room. It’s fine for 2 weeks.
