5.0 out of 5 stars RCA VCA115 VHS-C Cassette Adapter
Must say i should have bought this instead of the powerless type of adapter.Do not waste your money on the non-battery type! I am not lying when i say the powerless adapter lasted 1 playback. Total junk. They rely on 100% mechanical operation and it makes the tape bind up when trying to deploy it. I was actually worried that it would cause the tape to tear or break...

2.0 out of 5 stars GOOD IDEA BUT POOR FITTING PARTS
The adapter is a great idea for playing VHS-C tapes in your regular VCR but mine stuck in the VCR every time I used it. All regular VCR tapes worked fine. It needs some refining

Ok, now on to the good news. This RCA battery powered adapter is a GEM, i used it in my VHS-C to DVD recorder. I converted about 25 cassettes to DVD and not one time did the RCA adapter fault. The single battery (AA i think) lasted easily for 30+ hours or so of playback time and is ready for more.

I have nothing bad to say about the RCA VCA115!

In a nutshell: If you are thinking about saving money and getting the battery-less type you are in for a surprise. Just spend a little more and save yourself allot of headache and frustration.

Didn't work and not worth sending back - I'd spend more money on postage. Got one that worked through Best Buy.

I don't know why I waited so long to order this product. Especially because I would be able to use this handy adapter to watch baby videos of my son. This product is PRICELESS for me!

If you've ever needed an adapter to review your old VHS-C tapes on a regular VCR, then this is the one !! When it arrived I put the supplied batteries into it and cranked it up. Worked perfectly. No worries, no hassles, no problems. I would like to tell everyone that this is one product that will work the 1st time, and every time after that. Great stuff !!

This review is from: RCA VCA115 VHS-C Cassette Adapter (Electronics)
I don't understand what these other people are talking about, because the one I used (actually it was a Panasonic, which might explain why mine worked and yours don't) worked perfectly fine.... That is until someone dropped it on the floor. I had to get a new one but oh well....

I purchased this device so that I could use my 8mm camcorder tapes in the new VCR I purchased. When I tried to insert the 8mm tapes into the adapter, it became apparent that they did not fit. This was a disapointment.
