Can anyone compare it to the battery powered motorized adaptors? That's what I had and used for over 15 years. But it recently broke and the new ones cost about $300 !!

You have to be careful with the adapter, that you dont wreck tapes. Operat the mechanism slowly while installing tapes. On rewind toward end had a tendence to bind. I used it succesfully most of time. I also have a battery oper one. They work better. Check Radio Shack. They have a nice batt operated for $24.00

This one does not have a battery operated mechanism. So the VCR you insert this unit into has to pull the tape. It is not as smooth as the battery assisted unit, but does work.

Thank you Ely, I would also like to know what the "Plug size" is, I have a 3 volt adapter but it's plugdoesn't fit and there are so many different sizes, it's difficult to find the right one.

I am not sure about an adapter for this product. I have only used batteries in them. Rechargeable batteries would be the most cost efficient though! Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

I would not suggest it. I used an adapter that was suitable and the motor burnt out.

Hello! So easy! a 9v adaptator! You can get it in any place, like a Supermarket! for less than $10 bucks.

No adapter, battery operated as far as I can tell. The batteries lasted a long time!!

Yes it is compatiable with the motorized version. It works incredibly well.

Oh Wait Angela - I didn't realize this was the 1st one I ordered that DID NOT WORK. I ended up getting the PWR 14ft AC Adapter ($19.90) which works amazingly well, and the extra long cord is awesome.

Get in touch with their customer service, the service is amazing... Had some problems with the adaptor which here in Costa Rica is around $50(believe it or not) and was amazed when they sent me one without charge.. Will definetly be buying from them again.

I don't know. If you use batteries you really do not need this adapter. It actually gets in the way of the pedals.

Sorry not to be able to list all of the adapter ends, do know that one of them suits the Sony Walkman which is a favoured companion here. Have to tell you this items caused me no end of trouble as the voltage settings, when using a digital volt-meter of repute, displayed on the casing seemed to be 'all over the place'; haven't, after quite a few months, been able to use it altho' may well be able to canibalise it. (was a project architect for Local Govt. for many years, and so was reqd. to handle electrics in designing and supervising construction.) Have generally found too many electrical items of Chinese manufacture with soldering faults/dry or otherwise, so advise you call on an informed and practical friend.

Mine worked great for ~1.5 years. Similar to others, the motor died, and now I need to find a replacement.

I look at for use down the road. Batteries are a big cost. 20 volts are running $50. That ismore than I payed for the cord drill and it will last longer than the battery life. Plus, yes, there is more power than a battery powered drill. I did also pick up the 12v drill. the batteries cost half as much.You would have the portability w/t 12v and the power when needed w/t corded version. Then,after ten years when you can't buy the batteries any more you still have the cord version to use with all the attachments that you purchased. Just my thoughts.

We have one and love it. Bought an adapter separately. Totally worth every cent. Could not recommend it enough
