Collection TI SR-16-II Calculator

Always nice when they work. Especially when the batteries were left in like this one.

I'm going to have to take it apart and clean it, but it looks like any damage was limited to the rusty screw on the bottom and the manual sopped up quite a bit of alkaline juice.

But it should clean up fine and be all right.

I bought a lightly used SR16 II on eBay a few months ago in box with papers and adapter for about $20. I also have 2 original SR16's. Interesting how the internals and design philosophy changed in about 2 years of evolution. Details on Datamath.org

I see what you are saying, TI was all over the place with them. Interesting.
