Customer Testimonials
"Your product came yesterday. This has to be one of the best investments I've EVER made in 30 years in business. It works wonderfully exactly as described. It takes a lot to impress me and I am REALLY impressed! Thanks again."

Video Experience, Buffalo Grove, Il.

"Amazing product. We used to use the hand held degaussers that would only last for about a minute before they burst into smoke. This product can be used continuously and without electricity which was huge for us as we practice "green" methods whenever possible. I've also noticed less digitization than before. I have recommended this product to our other sites and would recommend to anyone."

"Very pleased. I have looked (at) and owned several other types, which most small business cannot afford, required electricity and were very bulky and heavy. I found this one to be the best. Small portable, easy to use. Works first time every time !!!"

"I bought the Erase-O-Matic 1 Digital video Tape Degausser and just used it for the first time. As a film teacher that uses many, many, Mini-DV tapes, I wanted to be able to erase old DV & HD footage and reuse the tapes. One main reason is that once HD footage is recorded on a Mini DV, it will have problems being used in a DV camera, and the playback will be restricted whenever there is a pause in recording. I was very skeptical when buying this unit, I really did not think it would work. Man, was I wrong! Wow, I took a Mini-DV that had been used and abused with layers of video on it and pushed it through the Erase-O-Matic. I took the tape out, put it in the camera and it was blank! I tried it with HD footage, and bam! Works like a charm! It is very refreshing to buy something that really works and stands up to the claims of the company... Thank you, Data Devices!"
