You walk out of a lecture or meeting you attended, and the details are already fading. This USB flash drive voice recorder holds on to them, waiting up to 25 days in voice activation. Afterwards, plug it straight into your computer and play back every dated file.

• Two modes, one switch: slide between voice activation and continuous recording, depending on the day.
• Up to 25 days on one charge: in voice activation, or up to 24 hours of continuous recording.
• Records while plugged in: keep it on USB power for sessions longer than one charge.
• 288 hours on 8 GB: room for 288 one-hour meetings before you clear the memory.
• Works as a flash drive: store documents and other files next to your recordings.
• Automatic volume control: evens out recording levels, with nothing to adjust before you start.

What you need: a Mac or Windows computer with a USB port.

In the box: voice recorder and instruction manual. USB power adapter not included.

Good to know: the date and time stamp is set up from a Windows computer, and 25 days applies to voice activation; continuous recording runs up to 24 hours.

Using it: for an all-day workshop you're leading, switch to continuous recording and plug into USB power so it keeps going past one charge.
