How long do solar powered calculators last?
Although a definitive lifespan is generally hard to pinpoint, a solar-powered calculator is likely to last 5-15 years, with many people claiming that their calculators have lasted them for over 20 years! It is assumed that within 10 years your solar cell battery will only be charging to about 60\% of its capacity.
Do scientific calculators run out of battery?

Why are solar lights not working?

How long does it take to charge a scientific calculator?
It very much depends on the calculator. My first scientific calculator was a TI SR-50 (in later high school). My second was an HP-25. Both of these used NiCd battery packs and LED displays. The LED displays are power-hungry, so a battery charge would last only a few hours.
Does the Casio fx-991es plus have a mini solar panel?
My Casio fx-991ES PLUS was dropped and now the display does not light up unless it is under a light source. It has a mini solar panel which I assume it using for power and it has new batteries in it but they do not seem to work. Is there something I can do to fix it?
What kind of battery does a scientific calculator use?
My first scientific calculator was a TI SR-50 (in later high school). My second was an HP-25. Both of these used NiCd battery packs and LED displays. The LED displays are power-hungry, so a battery charge would last only a few hours. (The processors were PMOS, not CMOS, which didn’t help either).
