Re: [Shop-talk] WOW,

The model I have has in interesting property:  It is
actually on all the time.  The "power" switch just
blanks the display.  If you turn it off, adjust it to
a new setting, and turn it on again, the display reads
the correct value.

The battery only lasts about 8 months, but you can get
a card of about 10 of those little batteries for a
dollar at a dollar store.  (Beats paying $2 each!)
