TI-2500-V2_PCB.jpg (70970 Byte)The second version of the different Datamath calculators could be easily recognized at the closed bottom. This calculator uses 4 built-in NiCd batteries that couldn't be replaced by the owner instead the 6 batteries of the Version 1.

A more detailed comparison between the ten known Datamath Versions could be found here. Don't miss the never released Minimath calculator sporting a Liquid-Crystal-Display.

This Datamath was replaced after 6 month with the Version 3.

Like most other versions of the Datamath calculator this one was manufactured in Spain, too. Don't miss the sibling TI-2500.

Recently we discovered a TI-2500 Version 2 manufactured in United Kingdom.

A similar calculator to this TI-2500 Version 2 was sold under the label of Longines Symphonette. View it here.
