Date: Mon, 30 Aug 2004 03:44:10 -0700 (PDT) Hello - I have a Archos recorder 20 and now I have some big problems. I live in India and have for the last 3 years. I have used the recorder here and in Nepal, but the batteries have consistently given me problems. First, they last only a few hours. Even with the software indicating that there are 10 hours left, the recorder will surely last only a few hours. Second, the batteries have died now twice. The message on the screen indicates 'not charging' when I plug it in and the adaptor seems to be fine. The unit with other adaptors also indicates the same message. This happened in Kathmandu (Nepal)first and I replaced the batteries with the same brand only a higher MA (1800). They have now died in India. I can not replace the batteries here, but I will have to wait until I reach a big city like Calcutta or maybe Bangkok. The original adaptor that I got was for US voltage, so I bought a local adaptor in India that is 12 Volts and 500ma. Could the adaptor be the source of the problems? The power often fluctuates here. Could this be ruining the batteries? I have posted two messages before and received no replies. I would appreciate some response.. Thanks in advance for your help or just some ideas..
