Portable Reel to Reel decks
had incarnated into two types: portable in the sense that they can be moved form location to location but still depended on AC power and then those decks, that were truly portable as they ran off internal batteries.
Due to being portable, decks were designed as small as possible, which limited the size of reels they could use. Unfortunately truly portable tape decks employ reel sizes of typically 3", 3 1/2" and 5" (Most non portable, or AC dependant portable decks work with 7" reels). To still get a reasonable amount of recording time form the much smaller reel size, portable decks often offered lower tape speeds, so that the audio material would take up less space on the tape. Speeds of portable decks are: 15/16, 1 7/8 and 3 3/4 IPs, where: the smaller the deck, usually the slower the speed. Unfortunately lower tape speeds result in lower recording sound quality. Some decks compensate for this somewhat by using the maximum track width (half track or full track recording).
Most truly portable decks only recorded in mono. Tapes recorded on these decks often cannot be played back on home units, or only with difficulty, as most home decks offer only faster speeds (3 3/4 and 7 1/2 IPS).
And: most home decks are designed to work with 7" reels and would provide too much torque for a 2" or 3" reel. Then the issue of being stereo, so there will be a possible miss match in recording speed, reel size and track asignement, when trying to play a tape, that was recorded on a portable, on a home deck..
I shall metion, that I can transfer small reel tapes from portable decks for you to CD, saving you form needing to purchase a portable deck to hear these again . However, if having more than just a few tapes, the purchase of a tape deck will be more economical. More details about tape transfer services here

Power Supplies:
#5.Vintage Original UHER Z115 Power supply.
This UHER 4000 series AC to DC power suply fits into the unit's intenal battery compartment so that the unit can be AC powered without taking up the extra space needed for the power supply. But it also can be used with the UHER rechageable batteries, in which case the batteries would get installed in the recorders internal battery case and the power supply would get connected extenally with a power cable (item # 22 from above listed acessores). I also have a set of vintage UHER original rechargeable batteries that still work (Inquire)
UHER Z115 Power supply "AS FOUND - AS-IS" non working - needs refurbishement $55.00
UHER Z115 Power supply - REFURBISHED - Oblsolete Parts make it quite difficult to refurbish this type of power supply $199.00
-> SEE ALSO ITEM #22 - UHER power Cable <-
#6. Replacement AC Power supply for UHER portable reel recorders - ANALOG - Recent Production.
This power suply I custom modified / crafted to work with UHER 4000 series recorders.

Price: $45.00
Carry handles:
#8. Original UHER Carry handle for 4000 series portable reel recorders
If using the deck at home likey the carry handle will not be needed, but if wishing to carry the deck (without a leahter carry case) while using it thedeck, the handle is a must have. However: If using a leahter cary case - if the case has a shoulder strap the handle will not be needed and is in theway. I have to 2 styles of carry handels: the standard "modern" handle that smaps onto the pins of the deck and "old" typs that has 2 knobies that tach to the pins of the deck. Early versions of the 4000 use the "old" handle" later versions of th edeck the "new" handle. I think though that both will work on either deck (yet ot confirm)
UHER 4000 Series Carry handle "NEW" Style Price: $25.00
UHER 4000 Series Carry handle "OLD" Style Price: $35.00

Vintage Vaccum Tube Portable Reel to Reel Recorders - MONO
1950's European made Professional Portable Reel to Reel Recorder
2 Speed Vaccum Tube recorder
Description: This Deck to it's interior date stamp was made in 1950 in Italy and was meant for daily steno work in the office but is also advertised as a recorder for music and speech such as used in the field when recording interviews for the newspaper. The good old days of quality very well manifested hrere! The original carry bag, empty reel, microphone and owners manual are included. The manual advertises a buch of accessories including a powerr convertor to use the deck in the car. I would guess this is probably among the samllest taped decks at the time and it was made all with nice quality parts. It was built to last and it's design implements super heavy duty contruction - All mechanical parts are metal.
I restored the unit so that it is fully and reliably working again. It was pretty hard to work on as quite compact. The unit had jacks of an obsolete size, which I upgraded to standard 1/4" Also: The power transformer in the unit is based on a taped single winding, wich means it does not have a true seconday and that the chassis is not insulated . Thus I added a grounded power chord to ground the chassis with a plug, that can and shoudl only be inserted in the way it is desingedn for, as to keep HOT off the chassis. If using this deck for musical applications: NEVER USE A GROUND LIFT - and: ALWAYS CONNECT to a GROUNDED POWER JACK. Other than that: This lilttle deck is truly amazing!
A very rare and special Find! - Once sold, opportunity to own this beautiful piece is gone!

Work performed to present this machine in excellent and fully working condition: Replaced nearlty all capacitors throughout the unit with high quality parts. Completely overhauled mechanical parts. A complete cleaning and lubrication job on all mechanical parts - which inclcuded rework of all rubber parts. All potentiometers and swtiches, trimpots, tube sockets and contacts deoxydized and lubricated, replaced the pinchroller, cleaned and demagnetized all elements in the tape path; upgraded obesolete jacks with standard 1/4". all adjustments checked and tweaked. Thorough and complete test. About 20 hours of labor plus parts went into this deck.
Condition: Excellent working condition - machine recently completely overhauled to fully work in every aspect. The heads of this machine show only minor wear, so perform excellently. However, there is one shortcoming: The main ilder wheel of this deck has a bump in it. While the effect of it in performance is barely noticeable it generates a clatter / running noise when the machien is running. The remedy would be to have the idler wheel re-coated with new rubber, for which I would add about $125 to the cost of the deck. As I already spend way too much work time on refurbishing this wonderful deck - exceeding my asking price by far, I want to leave it up to you whether you wanted to pay for that. Physical Condition: Very Clean and excellent. However: The plastic casing and the plexiglass lid have more or less noticeable cracks as the machine was not packd properly when shipping it to me.
But: Overall cosmetic condition: 9/10

Battery Operated Tape Recorder
Description: Most folks buy this sort of thing to replace their original machine to play those old recordings again, but this machine won't work for that, as it's based on constant reel speed not on tape speed. It is rather a deck for musicinans who want to record in the ultimate LOW-Fi sound. The deck is really cheezy with tinny crunchy sound, that has character (!) and drags a little, as made cheaply and rubber old - a piece of crap, but includes all needed and was repaired to work as good as it can: A Mic is hardwired and can be pulled out; Someone added input and output jacks at one time (which I re-worked). Operates on batteries only and includes vintage tape + reels. Mono.
Work performed I spent about $100 in labor on this. If you can, please pay $100. Mojo will reward you. If you can't, I'll take as much as you have, but not less than $55. Below that: make your own tape deck form beer bottles - No way!
Lot: recorder with mic, original box + styrofoam packing. No manual (unit is self explainatiry) and the lid shown on the box is missing. Works, as described and shown above.
Price: 55.00 - Get the ultimate low-fi sound.
