The 110 Super Winder II offered continuous shooting at a  blazingly fast 1.5  frames per second!  This winder has the honour of being the ONLY electric accessory winder made for Sub-miniature cameras.

There are two versions of the rubber grip for the camera found on the first model. One version has the ribbed lines, found with white Asahi and very early black panhead screw versions of the camera and the more common version is the later smooth top.

• Winder - Later version with smooth top
• Winder II

The most breakable part of the 110 System is the little plastic battery covers on the motor drives.

In the centre is shown the battery latch on the bottom of the motor drive.  Push it towards the motor handle, and the cover opens. The often overlooked part is that the cover has two little legs (left) which must be positioned before closing the top.  Otherwise you are likely to break the battery cover, and join the sleepless legions of System 10 battery cover seekers, condemned to pathetically haunt camera stores begging for the unobtainable replacement battery covers.

Many winders suffer damage on the weak clips as shown in the photograph below. The battery compartment has then to be closed using tape. The 'cover' on the right has one black plastic clip missing and one nearly seared off.

For many the Pentax Auto 110 is easier to hold by the winder. The original 110 Winder offered a single frame advance at 1 frame per second.
