Im getting rid of my collection of Creative JB3s - but realized all these new 5V battery packs might be perfect for this old standby.
How about this cable?
I think that's the plug? Probably need the 2A output on the battery?

I'd pull out my McCrapper (MT2496) before I pulled that JB3 back out. No thank-ya. ;)
When you can get a decent 24 bit SD card recorder for under $100, there really is no reason to invest in stuff for your JB3 (or DAT, mini disc, iriver, etc)
Jb3 might be old but that cable would work with any 5v device utilizing the same tip. I wouldn't trash them

I already have the 5V battery to power my TASCAM DR-70D...so the only investment here will be a few bucks for a cable.
I have 4 JB3s...going to keep one for the rare occasion I might wish for a bit bucket.

The cable in question is a Sony PlayStation Portable accessory...(one application)
I've been using the PSPs wal-wart to power my JB3 for years.
Creative was way ahead of the game with this early 5V device! ( I guess due to the HD power spec)
