Wow, I've never seen so many different calculators in all my life! Ty for posting this video, good job!

This is pure gold! I was looking since years for my first calcualtor, which i bought 11 years old in 1980. Found some more, later bought models. Great idea, this video!

My grandfather had one of those early TI scientific calculators in the seventies. It might be a TI-30 but it looked different. They probably made countless variants. I always played with it when I visited them in the eighties. I loved the red lights in the dark.

Beautiful

I am passionate about vintage tech so thank you for this video, and what a beautiful collection. So cool about the Braun calculator inspiring the iPhone one.

Thanks for your kind message.

I still use my HP 25, bought new in 1976 straight from Hewlett-Packard Italy !

@rapscallion3506 Год назад

Impressive. Thanks for sharing.

I still love my hp 20s, bought it in 95 still works like a charm. Last week I caved and bought a Texas instruments nspire cx II, the ti 83 needed a friend :)

SR-40 @ 09m:30s was my first scientific calculator here in Brazil, in 1976. At that time, it was a huge improvement over slide rules, or 4 operation calculators (as you have shown at the beginning of this video) or handbooks this dozens/hundreds of pages for log/trig operations.

A fine and intelligently curated collection. You have very good taste and some very desirable calculators. I collected calculators (mostly LCD) when I was a teenager in the early 1980s and it was always Casio for me, though I liked Panasonic's calculators too. In the UK Texas Instruments didn't really have as good a reputation as Casio or Sharp, or so it seemed to me. Google 'androo smugmug calculators' and you will find my present day collection.

@amazingcato5315 Год назад

Nice collection. Very clean. You should have some Panasonic and Compucorp calcs too. They both have unusual looks to them. I used to collect LED calcs too. I still have a Sharp EL-8 and a Sperry Remington 661.

Casio also makes very, very durable watches. I have a solar one I've been wearing for over 10 years. It has the atomic clock feature so the time is always accurate. Changes between daylight savings and standard time automatically. I've never done ANYTHING to the watch and it's still running today.

@russellhamner4898 Год назад

10 years barely breaks those Casio watches in. I had an early 90s vintage G-Shock that I bought with a couple weeks' worth of lawnmowing money in elementary school that is surely still running if only I hadn't lost it a while back. Timex Ironman watches are the same way. The Japanese make very high quality stuff at reasonable prices; Casio G-Shock and Timex Ironman watches are the Honda and Toyota of watches, respectively. Or is it the other way around?

Amazing

Thanks for watching (and subscribing I hope - that really helps my channel)!

@deanpratley125 2 года назад

I remember the green or red face calculators with the bulbous type individual lenses over each number.

@ErixCollectables 2 года назад

Yes, these are probably the Nixie-tube displays, they look very similar to LEDs but technically they are officially different. I took the liberty to call them all "LED calculators" to not be overly technical.

@russellhamner4898 Год назад

The display in my HP-22 has those little bubble lenses over each individual digit, as the actual digits are like 2mm tall. Most of those green displays are actually fluorescent displays of some sort, although there are surely green LED displays on some calculators out there SOMEWHERE. Been thinking about buying a Nixie tube alarm clock.

@m80116 2 года назад

They should start making retro-looking VFD calculators again. I'd never buy a modern calculator because of... apps. I have fond memories of the Canon Palmtronic from my heyday. BTW the fact that 50 years later you can pop some Alkaline batteries in and use all of this 1970s bonanza is astonishing. No tech of today I am sure could still be usable after half a century.

Your Genesonic is what I had in 1975 as a Decimo 2001e. Cost me £50.

@EJEuth Год назад

That NOVUS Mathematician @ 5m:24s - I have one too. A rare sample of non-HP rpn calculator (real red LEDs).

@nicolasdiazpavez5069 Год назад

The Olympia CD46 is identical to the Panasonic 8203, I have one 💖

@richiec.7637 2 года назад

Do they even make calculators like this anymore? I'm 63 and use calculators and it's getting harder seeing the lcd displays now. I remember the old red led ones. I think it was back in the early 70's. They seemed magical. I remember wondering how they could calculate so fast and were always right...lol

@russellhamner4898 Год назад

I still use my little HP-22 business calculator that I inherited from my Dad a while back. He bought it in 1975 when he - if I'm recalling this correctly - passed the CPA exam. It's on like its fourth set of batteries but it still runs and is still beautiful. It has sentimental value but it is also just a really good calculator that has held up really well. Buttons still nice and snappy, no dry rot on the rubber button pad apparently. Made in Singapore!

@ErixCollectables Год назад

Great that you're still using the HP calculators. They are extremely well-built, and great calculators. Thanks for watching!

@warsaw28 3 года назад

I had the casios. They were awesome. 😜👍

@markgreco1962 3 года назад

Nice

@MagicPatagonia 3 года назад

Great music!

@EJEuth Год назад

Beautiful collection, although several shown are not LED, but high voltage VFD (green digits).

@ErixCollectables Год назад

Thanks. And yes, I should have explained that some are VFD and some are Nixie tube. But I simplified a bit. more to make the distinction with 'recent' LCD displays.

@arisriyanto1751 3 месяца назад

Maybe You need thes one, Casio 801-MR is rare and beautiful item but nothing review on youtube ( maybe you like its) 😊

@Crazytesseract 3 года назад

The Sperry Remingtons were mostly made by Casio. I am interested mostly in Casio and to some extent Sharp, HP. Note: I don't own any vintage non-LCD devices.

I just picked up a 1988, Calculated Industries, Canadian Real Estate Master Financial IV. Dunno why but I got pretty excited when I saw it. There is no manual and I have no idea how to use its functions. Any insight?
