Description

Brand: TOSHIBA
Model: SLC-8260
Type: Scientific calculator
Picture: TOSHIBA SLC-8260
Batteries: LR 44 x 2
Lifetime: Introduced: ca. 1979
Terminated: unknown
Notes: This is a standard school calculator with all the required functions, including statistical functions.

Functionally identical to the TOSHIBA SLC-8261.

Also practically identical to the TI-25. It has the same peculiarities as the TI-25 (see the page on the TI-25).

Compared to the other school calculators of its time, I didn’t like this one very much. Its keys are difficult because they need quite some pressure to operate, and the calculator is very slow.

Changing batteries is rather difficult with this calculator, it’s quite easy to break the case when trying to open it.
