Calcu-light XP - is this a problem?

[gdi]

I just received a very nice looking Quantum Calcu-light CP and all looks good, except for one thing.

When I take a reading the digits always flash. Readings seem accurate enough, but this not consistent with my older standard Calcu-light. I tried the same batteries in both, with the same behavior.

Does anyone have any insights or experience to offer?

IIRC, in mine numbers flashed when you pressed the recall buttom

Thanks - when I press the memory button, it doesn't flash! Only as I take a reading.

No worries, the number flashes when you take the reading, and is steady when you press the memory button. Cracking meter, especially in low light. 🙂

Thanks Peter - I guess it is ok then!

I was just suspicious that the other model works differently.

BTW, am I correct in assuming that there is no way to adjust or re-calibrate this meter?

To be honest I don't know - mine is pretty accurate so I've never tried to find out. I'm sure there are people who service them though, at least I hope so...
