Ok can buy one of these for practically nothing. Guy can tell zero. he got it out of a skip. whats the chance of it working. selenium i think. If it doesnt can i fix it! I like the look good on my Zorki. Another point is it likely to be accurate. I have enough paperweights. Thanks people.

20-30% in my experience every second, third selenium light meter works, highly depend from storage if sensor was in dark , stored well, most of them works.

Selenium cells can't be fixed, only replaced. But sometimes the fault lies in aged solder which can be fixed with a touch from a soldering iron.

That's cool enough to use even if it doesn't work, just take a sneaky meter reading with a phone app.
