Condition & professional refurbishment
This refurbished Elan Mira G1 steno writer is in good used condition. The screen has no marks but is slightly dark. Every Mira that passes through our shop goes through a detailed refurbishment process:
- Machine is completely disassembled
- All parts are chemically cleaned using a non-toxic, bio-green solution
- Stop pads, bar pads, toggle roller, and other wear items are replaced or reconditioned as needed
- Platen is reconditioned or replaced if it doesn’t meet specification
- All mechanical parts are lubricated and adjusted to factory spec
- Electronic components and contact assemblies are checked and adjusted
- Full diagnostics on realtime communication, battery charging, and disk drive operation
- Casing is cleaned and keytops are polished
This process typically takes 4–5 man hours – it’s not “just someone’s used machine.”
