I was given, one of these lightmeters
But it's not working. Does anybody know someone that can repair it. Someone in europe would be nice. But at this time any info would be nice.

Do you have the right batteries? It should take / need the V 675 Mercury ones, which you can't get in shops any more. On the other side it shouldn#t be worth to repair it - you can easily get another one for little money.

Gossen will probably repair it, but as mentioned above, it may be cheaper to buy another.

The lunasix uses the same batteries as the Leica CL. So it has the same problem as the CL (wrong voltage). But when using these batteries it should still function. but mine is totally dead.
And yes, I did check the gossen site if they can repair it. But this is what you see if you check the repair page
"All lightmeters in grey housing cannot be repaired any more! "
So that is not possible.
And I already have a working lightmeter, so I wantvto find out if it's possible to repair this one.

So - no! And I made the experience, that my lightmeter worked with the old mercury batteries - but not with the modern ones when I tried.

If that's the case, a wein cell and/or adapter could solve the problem.
Thnx for the info FrankHarries
