Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Many Camcorders use a Video Cassette (VHS-C) that are a lot smaller than the traditional VHS Cassettes that are used in Video Players/Recorders, making it impossible to play.

To overcome this problem, this cassette adaptor allows you to play or record on your VHS-C cassettes on a standard VHS Video Player/Recorder.

The loading and unloading of the tape into and out of the adapter takes place automatically when the shutter is closed and opened.

Simply slide open the cassette door switch on the Adaptor and the door opens. Pop in your VHS-C Cassette and close firmly the door. The motor inside the adaptor with then start moving the gears and idlers inside the adaptor making your VHS-C cassette compatible with your VHS Video Player/Recorder.

Then simply insert the Adaptor into your VHS Video Player/Recorder and use as a normal Video Cassette.

When finished viewing/recording, eject the adaptor from your VHS Video Player/Recorder Like a normal Video Cassette. Slide the Cassette door switch in the VHS-C Adaptor, and again the motor will automatically move the gears & idlers back, allowing you to use your VHS-C Cassette in your Camcorder.

The door will then open and then you can remove your VHS-C Cassette from the adaptor.

Please note: that this adaptor is only compatible with VHS-C Cassettes and does not support Video-8, Hi8, etc.

This VHS-C adaptor requires 1x AA (Penlight) Alkaline battery to operate (not included).

Product Description

This adapter makes it possible to record on or view vhs-c casettes using all vhs videorecorders. The loading and unloading of the tape into and out of the adapter takes place automatically when the shutter is closed and opened. For this purpose, a penlight battery must be inserted.

Saved the day 18 April 2011
By Fynt
I had a few old VHS-C tapes from holidays back in 96.
Didn't know how to get them saved to DVD and this converter was brilliant and easy to use.
Combined with the EasyCAP USB 2.0 Video and Audio Capture Card I was able to watch the videos and save them to my PC. Very easy to use, bought a cheap 2nd hand VHS player and all saved. Brilliant.
Well packaged, solid construction easy to operate. Delivered quickly and would recommend highly both the product and the seller.

After reading some of the reviews for this product I was a little hesitant to order one. I need not have worried; I was transferring my first VHS-C tape within minutes of the postman delivering the device! One criticism levelled at the adapter is that it is difficult to extract the cassette once you've finished. I had no such trouble. True, it's a snug fit but you wouldn't want a sloppy fit would you? Perhaps those reviewers missed the finger sized hole, thoughtfully provided by the manufacturer on the back of the device, which enables you to push out the cassette from underneath. All in all a great product at a reasonable price.

GOOD 20 Nov 2009
By A. Taylor TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE

Does what it says on the tin - not five stars becasue I've found it quite a job to get the tape out after using, comes down to brute force which leaves me a little concerned that I might break it (both tape and adapter) otherwise good.
