Topic: Sony PCM-M10 (Part 8)

[mrfender]

So a certain website was streaming shows from back in 2010 and 2014 of a certain band known for residencies at the Beacon over the weekend.  Plugged in the old M10, pressed record and wondering if the battery life would live up to expectations.  Fairly new eneloop 1900s that were probably 95-99% charged lasted 19 hours.  Some posts here have claimed 25-30 hours on fresh alkalines (not looking to re-start an old discussion) but it still just amazes me what this thing can do.

I love the M10 for its' battery usage of being about 24 hours on AA"s for me. Incredible power performance.

So suddenly neither of my two beloved PCM-10s will recognize new or used 16 or 32 gb San Disk Micro SD cards, even though one of them has been happily using such a 32 gb card for years.  I bought new cards of this ilk (both 16 and 32 gb), only to find that neither PCM-10 will recognize these cards, let alone let me format the cards in them.   The only card that I have that either of my PCM-10s will recognize is a San Disk "M2" 16 gb card that the other PCM-10 has been using for years.  I popped this M2 card out of the one and put in the other, where it was recognized immediately. 

Trouble is, I cannot find another "m2" card for sale on line, except for a high price and less capacity (e.g. , $30 for a 4 gb card).  Any thoughts or suggestions?

That sucks.  I have one with a 16g and one with a 32g Sandisk Ultra Plus right now and have never (knock on wood) had any issue with either.
