Can it record when charging? Thank you.

The instructions with my Voice/Audio Recorder says:"The USB recorder does not record when charging." Don't know about the ETEKCIY DVR. When I got mine, it had been turned on and I got nothing but Chinese conversation. Was not able to delete or stop the recording. So I "junked" it. Hope this helps.

Yes, but you have to leave the door on the back open, so it won't be waterproof. When you plug the charger in, it will ask you to select PC or adapter. You need to select adapter. Then it will shut off. Hold down the power button and it will turn back on and you can record. I've done this with the battery installed and without the battery installed.

No! And that's a huge problem for me because I use it as an emergency back-up and it was dead the other when I needed it:-( I do like it though. It records clearly. You just have to remember to charge it!

Manual says it does, but I have not tried it myself. It is not always recording though. You need to turn it on manually and it would generate a file that you would save on your PC.

Yes it will. but if you are in a place where you have plug it up while recording, that's even better. Then you won't have to work about power. It allows you to charge and record at the same time

I have not tried that but I do not believe it is designed for that. Also does not charge the iPhone when it is on the dock but it does not use a whole lot of battery when recording.

Yes, I am fairly certain it can. I haven't tried to do that, but my Deck B has a "Record" button on it.

Not that I have found. When you charge it, you can not operate it as a camera. Charging seems to disconnect the operating function.

Yes you can power it while it's recording, no you can't charge it while it's recording. The manual clearly states this.

Doubtful. While theoretically, you can record as much video as your usb thumb drive or your iPhone/ipad can hold, flight time before charging is needed is only about 20-25 minutes.

When you plug this recorder into a USB, a message comes up on the recorder screen saying, "Press OK to charge." If you press the central OK button, it will go into charging mode, instead of connecting to the computer as a 'storage' device. This recorder is very well designed, but when asking for the charging mode, the backlight is off, and it might be hard to read in dim external light.

Just charge it, turn it on and it will record any time a sound is made. If no sound,it does not record. Playback on computer. It does not have to be plugged in to USB port to work.

the recorder has a push out usb plug that plugs into your usb in your computer or hub and charges the recorder. This works really well!!

It has a separate power adapter which can be plugged in at any time for as long as you like (even with the battery plugged in, which also charges when plugged in). It does not charge via USB - in fact, when you have it plugged into your PC via the USB it is recommended that you plug in the power adapter. Hope that helps. Make sure you have a big enough memory SD card for however long you want to record.

I believe I've recorded with the ION Air Pro 2 while it was in charging mode, but I'm not sure; however, ION tech support plainly said; "YES, you can record videos while the charging cable is hooked up to the camera >> it will not charge the camera while in action, but it keeps the battery from discharging -- the camera will then record for hours...

Yes, this does have the "record what you hear" feature. I would also suggest you look at the products at www.DAK.com. There products are the most reasonable and work great. There support is also unbeatable.
