A method of assembling an electronic subassembly for a powered personal care product comprising:
- manufacturing a hollow housing defining a chamber having a first open end and an opposing second open end;
- inserting a rigid end of a first circuit board into the first open end of the housing;
- inserting a second circuit board subassembly having a second circuit board into the chamber through the second open end;
- and
- connecting the first circuit board to the second circuit board within the chamber of the housing,
- further comprising assembling a first circuit board subassembly by connecting the first circuit board to the housing, wherein said connecting the first circuit board to the housing comprises molding plastic around a portion of the rigid end of the first circuit board to form a seal between the rigid end and the housing,
- wherein the first circuit board is molded to the housing prior to inserting the second circuit board subassembly into the chamber through the second open end, and
- further comprising sealing the opposing second open end.
