The last one I owned was about 10yrs old when it died and I liked it so much I bought another one. I am using it to transfer compact VHS to my imac using a Pinnacle video capture kit. This item replaced my previous PV-P1 adapter that had locked up years ago. Thankfully Panasonic still makes these.
I tried different batteries and still nothing. Just another slap in the face. I ordered this to play my Hi-8 video cassettes in a VCR, but it appears my product is DOA, it does nothing. After a little more research, it appears I have the wrong product anyways.
Will this ruin my relationship with Amazon. Well I ordered this 4-23-09 and now it's June 13, 2009 and still have not received it. Very hard to rate something you never received. I wrote them to say I had not received the product and they said they were back ordered. I ordered from Amazon because I have always had success in getting everything in a timely fashion.
My old converter for playing compact VHS-C tapes from my camera in the VCR broke leaving me no way to view (copy) my tapes after the camera broke. This worked great.
I have a small business and occassionally get VHS and VHS-C cassettes to copy and put into memory videos. The battery one is excellent. Just remember to take the battery out after use. The product works very well. I have used a mechanical one and this one with the battery. Being able to copy them so easily into my editing program is wonderful.
