well remember the usb drive is taking a bit of power just to run. I don't know how much and it will be slower as well and this will take a bit nor from the battery.

I've never had a Victor Stream, but I do have an NLS player and the same
holds true: if I put the thumb drive in (and the player is fully charged)
it'll give me a reading of 10 hours, whereas if I have the cartridge in, it
then gives me 29 hours!  So yes..it would appear that flash drives _do_
drain more power!

Hi, recently i have been playing books on a flash drive connected to
my victor stream with the short lead. i noticed that i wasn't getting
the usual playing time. i assumed that the battery was failing, so i
bought a new battery. i found the same result with the new battery. i
sent a message to humanware about this, asking whether the flash drive
would take up more current. below is their answer. incidently, i have
gone back to playing from the sd card, and am now getting the amout of
playing time i was used to. brian.

It does depend on the drive itself but generally most flash drives
will cause the stream to use more power when accessing them.


Kind Regards
