Sharp EL-1197PIII 12-digit desktop calculator
Ordered this same calculator on 8/31/2024 no problem. This calculator has a detachable power cord but the cord has slits in it as if it is cut. Not the same cord as previous calculator purchased. Cord is much thicker and not detachable. See attached pictures.

Quiet and soothing sound!
I had previous model for 10 years and upgraded to new model and very pleased with design and functions. The most pleasing feature is the soothing quiet sound when you are performing functions.Thank you Sharp designers!

since I'm colorblind why not have minus
as I am colorblind can you also have minus signs instead of two colors for a negative figure

Love my Sharp calculator
I had a Sharp calculator for many years and after it stopped working decided that I could get by with a cheaper smaller calculator. I was never happy. I'm glad to have one very similar to my old one.
