I've just replaced my tired and worn electric toothbrush to find that
they no longer make the wall mounted version. Instead it is supplied
with a charger which has to be stood on a level surface,this is
inherently unstable, in addition I have no convenient charging point.
Has anyone had this problem and solved it in a neat way? I guess I will
have to build a small shelf where the old one fitted to the wall, but
judging from others experience, it will be liable to fall off, has
anyone solved this problem elegantly?

that green flashing LED is like a bloody lighthouse!). As my sockets are
surface mounted, I used adhesive velcro on top of a patress.

Blu-tack.

I've had to blu-tack the LEDs on my smoke and CO alarms.

We just bought a new Oral-B (the Professional Care 1000 which is being heavily discounted). It comes with the new inline-style charger but it has exactly the same peg/socket keyway as before, and it charges just fine on our old wall-mounted charger/brush holder that is a good two or three years old.
