i made a thread about the exact same thing. no one seems to know. i tried contacting the video maker about 3 weeks ago and have heard nothing back. there are parts i have paused and tried to read what they are but it's impossible. they sure are sweet though. the answer is only a blur away :P

I don't know what brand they use in this vid but I bought one called a ConAir Chopper. It has the normal clipper head that has the fairly wide teeth that most clippers have. There is also a second clipper head included that is about 2/3 the width of the first and has much finer teeth. Since I installed the smaller head I haven't used the stock one at all. It works great for detail work on the goatee and if I did let what little hair I have left grow out for some reason the smaller head would give me a cut much like the one in the vid.
Right around $20 at Wally World.
I'm gonna do a little research to see if I can find out what brand the other one is, though. Maybe it's a pro model that barbers use?

The next model up from that one is the Philips QC5010 Super Easy Hair Clipper. You can still get these on ebay from what i have seen. Wonder if they sell em in australia ;) from what i can see all you have to do is take the gaurd off and the teeth look extremely fine. looks like it would give a close shave.
I was thinking about buying this one http://www.productreview.com.au/p/wahl-groomsman-xl2.html even though its a beard trimmer you can still use it on your head. without the gaurd i was told by wahl it shaves to 0.5mm which is the equivalent of a days growth of hair
