Hi All,
I just purchased a DR-100mk3, and am trying to setup it. Unfortunately, the device arrived with the main battery discharged, and with no USB cable or power supply unit; being Christmas, I cannot find a shop where to buy a suitable cable (one with the Micro B plug, I suppose like in cell phone power chargers).
I've therefore tried to use some rechargable Varta NiMH batteries (2500 mA), that I use for powering my Apple wireless keyboard and trackpad. However, despite I'm sure I've installed them correctly in the recorder (by following the image in the manual, and the sticker in the battery compartment cap), they don't seem to be recognized.
The DR first showed both battery packs empty. Then, I was able to change the AA battery type to NiMH, and for a few seconds they were shown full. Then, they were again shown empty, and the device turned off.
Which type of AA batteries are required for this particular device, or this particulat type of devices? The manuals says nothing about this.
Thank you!
Paolo
