Introduction

Most engineers and aspiring engineers like myself also become very fond and attached to their equipment, including calculators.

The CASIO fx-570MS is not sold in North America, but it is a very popular model with international students coming to Canada and the United States from Asian, Middle Eastern, and North African countries. Such students will greatly appreciate a guide to replace the battery of their beloved calculator easily.

Also, most international students coming to Canada and the United States from developing countries are not in the habit of performing technical repairs while in their home countries. Semi-skilled and informal labour is readily available, often performing simple repairs at rates cheaper than buying a replacement. However, the dynamics change when in North America. Technical repairs often cost more than buying a replacement.

Given these devices’ sentimental nature, as already explained, some may prefer to replace the battery and continue using their calculators. Given instructions are readily available.

Good Luck and Happy Fixing!!
