If anyone is curious, Humanware has just emailed me back and the price for a new battery is £23 and shipping to the UK is free. Very reasonable indeed I must say.

Kind regards,

Hi Alison,

I take it you mean the VRS 1^st generation? Here is a copy of the CD I got with it; it has the user guide in different formats plus other instructions. Click below to download it or share the link (I’ve zipped it):

https://send.firefox.com/download/1687cf903e5dbe37/#ZlnEG47lrIaSVGOmRGd0yQ

BTW, this gave me chance to try Firefox Send and it seems excellent! The link is valid for seven days or twenty downloads. The zip file is 25mb.

HTH,

Does anyone have instructions for the Victor Stream or are they available online? My son's partner has recently suffered a stroke which has affected her eyes. I have given her my old Victor Stream but is struggling with some of its functions and it is so long since I used it, I'm not a lot of use to her.

Yes it should be.  Cant' remember how much I paid now, but it was reasonable at the time.

Hi Martin,

Yes, I guess the battery has deteriorated as they do. The battery is removable so it is easily replaced. I just hope the cost is reasonable.

Kind regards,

Amro

Speak to human ware, they should be able to get you a new battery.  If it's anything like the battery in the first gen, it's easily replaced.  Once these things go, that's it.  it's like any li-ion battery I'm afraid.

Hello Humanware dealers,

How much does it cost to replace the battery of the Victor Reader Stream New Generation please?

It seems that the battery has started to take an awfully long time to fully recharge, and it barely recharge if I’m using the Stream whilst recharging. I’ll do the usual tests of trying a different lead, plug etc but in the meanwhile if I have an idea on the prices of a new battery that would be good. Also, if someone has any good ideas on ways to speed up the time of recharging that would be really helpful.

Kind regards,

Amro
