I'm almost certain that I tested some other USB cables I have with my PTP2, longer and shorter, and they worked as well as the one supplied with it. That said, i haven't tried out a newer one I got, which is USB on one end and AC on the other. it goes with my Focus14 Blue braille display. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Adrien Collins" <adriencollins22160@gmail.com> To: "'Plextalk User Discussion List'" <plextalk@lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Sent: Sunday, August 11, 2013 6:30 PM Subject: Re: [Plextalk] problem with pocket
Hi Floor
Ok thanks, I have written to the plextalk to see if they can recommend a usb adapter, if not no worries. Can only but try.

Adrien,
yes. There may be a different amperage required, though I don't know. I wouldn't assume it's the same as something else, though, unless I knew it for a fact. Whether by design or default, the PTP2 (which i got last December) charges up more quickly via the AC adapter than by the USB adapter. I discovered this shortly afterwards. that doesn't mean there's something wrong with the USB adapter. I use the AC adapter to charge it; and when connecting it to my PC I often have both USB and AC connected.

Hi Flor
Yes you may be right, are you referring to voltages and rampages etc? I noticed that when I had the plextalk plugged into the usb adapter, it didn't charge up very quickly at all, that tells me the usb adapter is wrong. Perhaps someone can tell me if there is a suitable one on amazon.co.uk.

The point I was getting at is that it could be this way as between the different recorders, i.e., the Victor Reader Streem and the plexTalk Pocket. Each to its own adapter type even, for best performance. I know that the APH BookPort and PlexTalk are nearly identical.

Hi, I know from charging my mobile phone a few times with another adapter, which seem to fit it well, that that adapter didn't (or couldn't give it) its full charge.

Hi
I was trying to put all my mains adapters away and just use the usb cables with usb mains adapters like they supply with the new victor stream, thinking about it, I wonder if a low battery would have caused my problem? Will wait and see what happens.

Ever checked the battery charge status? With a file playing or paused, Press number 5 key a few times, or press it once and let Plextalk speak the information in that dialogue. After having been plugged in for a few hours and then disconnected, the unit should then be at or near 100% charge. You mentioned earlier about using a victor Stream plug with the Pocket? Why not use the one itself that came with the Pocket.

The unit uses the USB on the go technology to act as either a "master" when a USB device is connected, as in a flash drive with books, or a "slave" mode, or external storage device, when connected to a PC. The Pocket switches from its self-contained player/record mode to a "slave" mode to the PC when connecting via USB, so the restart when first connecting the unit, then reverts to the self-contained mode on removal, hence the other restart.
If restarting by itself, either when standalone or plugged in to a USB port on a PC or hub, there is something wrong.

I am not sure why the pocket should restart when connected, normally only when you disconnect.

That's exactly what it is doing.

The Pocket should restart whenever it is inserted into
