Thanks Steve. I'd only really like to know how to recalibrate it, so if that's included in the instructions then go ahead and send me them off list.

I raked out the instructions for mine. They seem to tell you how to cycle through the volume, how to work the light probe, and about the battery compartment, but they don't appear to tell you how to recalibrate it. They amount to a sheet of A4. The unit turns itself off after so many seconds.

From what you are all saying it sounds as if you have to find out how to work it by trial and error.

The volume will cycle through | three levels while you do that, and the detector will make a buzzing sound. | | I haven't needed to recalibrate it, but you must be able to do so, and I'm | sure someone will know. | | Glad you like it. I think it's a fine little gadget. | | Jackie | || ----- Original Message ----- | From: "Andy Collins" <andy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
