   Take your camera, remove the back, and point it towards the lamp. Press the shutter a few times, and if you see the light every time, then it's OK.
   Don't forget that the Sprocket rocket requires a lot of light to operate.
   Another suggestion: Make sure the Cloudy/Sunny selector is in either positions, and not in the middle, since it can totally block the light if accidentally left in the middle.

   thanks for the comment! I tried doing the thing with the lamp and everything's ok with the camera.
   The weird thing is that the pictures who could be scanned are really dark, but the pictures I took outside in a sunny day were totally gone on my negatives except this one.. I guess it could be that the cloudy/sunny selector was in the middle.. I used iso 400 film so that can not be the problem either.

   @letsgetfunkyy I've been using the Sprocket Rocket for a very short time, and never had a problem with that, but by trying it now, really the selector can be forgotten in the middle, blocking all the light. I usually check both selectors and the lens cap before taking a photo.

   @adash I'm going to keep an eye on the selector when I try my second roll of film. I think that this really could be the problem I'm dealing with. Thanks!
