Metal Case Desktop Calculator

FEATURES

Your RadioShack EC-2037 10-Digit Dual-Powered Metal Case Desktop Calculator has two power sources so you can use it almost anywhere. Its built-in solar panel provides power when you expose the calculator to light. When the surrounding light is not bright enough, the supplied internal battery provides the power. The calculator’s features include:

Large 10–Digit Liquid Crystal Display — makes it easy to read calculation results.

Adjustable Tilt Display — lets you adjust the display to the best viewing angle.

Four–Function Memory — saves important subtotals, and lets you add to and subtract from them.

Percentage Calculation — simplifies discount, percentage change, and tax calculations.

Automatic Power-Off — conserves battery power by turning off your calculator if you do not press a key for about 5 minutes.

Square Root Function — quickly computes the square root of the displayed number.

+/– Key — changes the sign of the displayed number.
