FCR GO 1 Handswitch

Has anyone been able to repair or second source the handswitch for the Fuji FCR GO 1. Fuji wants $1750 for these. Looking for a way to reduce costs.

Extremely helpful. My sincere thanks.

I respect a vendor's right to make money, but $1750 is just insulting.

Marc,

Wait till you have to buy a drive motor or drive wheel. The whole pricing structure is wacked. Side panels made of thin plastic for 3-5K. We have a new Carestream Digital portable the tech's love. The new DR Fuji looks nice since it's finally married to a Shimadzu portable but detectors can be an issue too.

Batteries, we have had good luck with Whosale Batteries in O'Fallon, MO.
