No problem at all, it didn't take longer than two minutes to swap the wires and I learned a lot about my "new" calculator in the process.

Now I just found out that something inside makes an unwanted contact, occasionally I get patterns in the display which look like a broken ACT... When I pull the LP board out again to attach the wires for the accessories I will add more insulating tape around it!

Did you use the tape for isolating the LED display bottom side?

Yes, that's already in place.

I've been using mine for two weeks and just transplanted it into a cosmetically nicer housing, since I enjoy using it so much.

Bernhard certainly nailed the U/I. The automatic sleep mode and continuous memory make it really pleasant to use. I was doing lot of home finance calculations yesterday it was terrific to just set the HP-25LP down and forget about it until I needed it again. All the convenience of an LCD calculator in a Woodstock!

Next to the low power, my favorite featuress are the IR printing, which is fast and easily keeps up with keyboard entries, and the clock / alarm.

Now I'm seriously considering a 34C version.
