Re: Unusual praise for hp-calculators :-) Message #2 Posted by Les Wright on 25 Jan 2007, 4:05 p.m., in response to message #1 by Maximilian Hohmann
I think in the its first decade of use I changed the N cells in my 41CV twice at most. Thereafter, after a period of dormancy, it was malfunctioning and I burned thru several sets of batteries, probably with all of the flicking he power on and off to revive the display (it had broken posts within and the consequent internal contact issues), till FixThatCalc rescued it. Now, I have all of these new peripherals (IR module, thermal printer, wand) that I desired in my youth but couldn't afford. I wonder what the battery life will be like now?
