Unfortunatly I forgot my AC adapter at home. I can not be sure about my
batteries even if I did fully charge them with a known good Sony Ni-Mh charger.
I will try to find a charger with * * Output: 12 V 1.2A * *
Is that right for a JukeBox Recorder 20?

Too bad, the warranty did expire 2 weeks ago.
I guess I had bad luck with my unit because I did already send it for repair
once (electrical shotcuts rebooting the unit when plugging/unplugging EAR or
LINE IN connectors).

Thanks,
