Hallelujah!
Card of Energizer 387S batteries arrived. I popped one in, hit the stopdown shifter and the needle sprang to life. I think I need to fudge a bit, don't I, since the voltage is 1.55? Maybe shoot 400 ASA film at 320?
ASA 200 one mark lower?

check vs. all other meters you have. There is a lot of contrary talk about this, but I believe all Spotties have a bridge circuit... on the other hand not all may be in tolerance after the decades.

The SP matches my ST605. It matches the Vivitar 45 meter in shade and open shade. The Viv grossly under reads brightly lit stuff. A white trailer wall in direct sun read 250/16 for both cameras, but 250/5.6 for the Viv, whether in reflective mode off the wall, or incident. I just pointed the meter in incident and reflective directly at the evening sun. At 200ASA, it read 30/5.6.
New battery for the meter? Hmmmm ...

Well the cameras seem ok, with the Viv maybe it's just overloading
