BenJammin Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 I have the Japanese Sharp MT-77 and recently lost the charging cradle and the voltage converter. Where or where can I order this at a reasonable price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Tires Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 You can try using a universal adaptor from Radio Shack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenJammin Posted January 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 I probably wasn't clear. More important than the AC adaptor is the fact that I lost the charging cradle for the MT-77. Without that it won't matter what kind of adaptor I have because the MT-77 has a proprietary power connector (like most/all MDs?). Any idea on how to score a replacement?

Fat Tires Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 You're correct. I didn't understand your request. Unfortunately I don't have much info to help you. I'd suggest sending an email to Sharp for a part number and ordering information. Hopefully they can help you. It's either that, or troll eBay in hopes that you'll be lucky.

Is that kosher? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 Yes, that's okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenJammin Posted January 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 Yes, that's okay.←Well it turns out not really, because they are completely different dimensions. The sony battery is flatter and wider, the Sharp is narrower and slightly thicker.So, that's not going to work. I could buy an old sharp on EBay that uses this battery and use it to charge, but that would be a little rediculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted January 6, 2005 Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 I'm sorry, I quickread and thought you said another unit when I had posted that. Listen 'ere, the gumstick used in that device is probably the same that are in most MD units. It's the long rectangular shaped one, right? You can purchase a relatively inexpensive gumstick charger and even a higher capacity battery than the one you're employing. What kind of gumstick does it take?

It looks just like the one in the MZ-NH1 except its not as wide, its thicker. So the size is displaced. How many different sizes do they come in? Mine has Sharp branded on both of them.Can you point me to where I can buy such a charger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any idea where to find it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bland10000 Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 The product at Minidisco.com is what you are looking for. The description says for "for NH series" which refers to the gumstick battery NH-14wm, not the hi-md model mz-nh1.You can find a better price than minidisco, just enter the product serial number into a search engine.

bland10000 Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 yep, that is it. Mt877 was my first unit, it was the colored lights that caught my attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
