Re: 41CV Display Message #4 Posted by Dan Grelinger on 19 July 1999, 2:37 p.m., in response to message #3 by dave
The top half of an HP-41CV of the correct vintage would be easy to install on the original calculator. Use the whole assembly, keyboard and all, without going to the trouble of desoldering/soldering the display. And Dave is correct, there are lots of battery leakage damaged -41's out there, you need to post to find one. Be certain the CV is from the same vintage though. There were major changes made in about 1985 with the introduction of the half-nut models, and there may be more minor changes that were made before that. If you can't find an exact replacement, then the open brain surgery may be the only way to go.
