How the Dual-Speed Motor Works
BaBylissPRO’s manual says the clipper starts on the lower speed, 6,800 RPM. You turn it on, then press the speed button to switch to the higher setting, 7,500 RPM. The manual says to change speed only while the clipper is on and not while cutting. So pick your speed before you start a blend, not mid-stroke.
The clipper also lists a metal injection molded tri-blade, a cleaning brush, oil, six combs and a USB adapter with a USB-C cable in the box.
Good to know
BaBylissPRO says the clipper starts on the lower speed, 6,800 RPM. You press the speed button to switch to the higher setting, 7,500 RPM.
The Wireless Station
The mat is what makes this line different. BaBylissPRO says the tool turns off automatically when you set it on the mat, and an LED rim shows it is charging. Tomb45 also sells a Powered Mat, a wireless charging organizing mat, and a bundle that pairs the clipper, trimmer, Wireless PowerMat and FXT45 Powered Mat.
If you do not want wireless charging, the manual lists USB-C and corded options for the clipper.

Built for barbers who fade all day and want a charging station behind the chair. Not ideal if you want a corded-only setup.

- Match the model number: FXT45C is the clipper, FXT45T the trimmer, FXT45MAT the mat.
- Check whether the listing includes the free wireless pad the makers mention.
- Check the warranty. BaBylissPRO lists 1 year on the mat; confirm the clipper and trimmer terms on the listing.
- Bundles can be out of stock. Tomb45 listed the Pro Duo bundle as out of stock when we checked.
