Sakar RE-98 Review by John Dickerson
I didn't read the reviews on this, before I purchased, but should have. It wouldn't rewind tapes & small broken plastic piece inside the unit, made it useless.
Sakar RE-98 Review by kryark (Singapore, Singapore Singapore)
Almost didn't buy this due to the negative reviews. However, I 'somewhat' didn't have a choice in that my video camera can nolonger rewind.
Overall, I'm happy I did buy.
I've had it for about a week now and have used it extensively. Before playing any tape (I'm ripping them all with my iMac) I fast forward to the end, then rewind to the beginning. Although there's been some issues, overall it has delivered on what it is supposed to AND MOST IMPORTANTLY has not 'chewed' any of my tapes.
However, the issues are serious and should be noted:
1) The mechanism to open the front cover of the cassettes is not as precise as it could be. I've had 2 or 3 occassions where extracting the cassette after FF & RW has shown that the bottom part of the cover is now misalligned. Nothing that can't easily be fixed with a mini-screwdriver, but left as is could have serious consequences to the tape. This may be part of the cause for the failures some people mention as I don't really see how it could chew a tape otherwise!
2) When FF'ing, you frequently need to apply gentle pressure to the lid to keep the tape engaged. This is a bit inconvenient, but doesn't damage anything.
Overall, at its price this is a useful item which clearly preserves the mechanism of these rapidly aging cameras/players. Without this, I wouldn't have progressed at the rate I have with 'ripping my MiniDV's' and probably would have spent 40 to 60 tims more for a replacement camera or player.
Recommend it, but use it with caution to ensure your tapes are preserved, paying particular attention to the inside moving flap.
Sakar RE-98 Review by Michael Forsberg "Carp Stalker" (Fenton, MO. USA)
I was a bit disappointed in this item. The rewind button will not stay locked when rewinding. You have to hold it in place in order to rewind it. Cheaply made. :(
