I use Casio fx-115ES calculator (green-friendly, solar powered), which will do the hex-dec-bin conversion job nicely. It's much faster and easier to use than HP49g calculator, which I have for many years.

Yes, I've seen and handled (through the plastic packaging) the 
FX-115. Barring finding something more suitable I'll get one of them.

(I wish statistical functions would be separated to a model separate 
from the engineering / computer functions. They always seem to come 
bundled and I never use the former...)

Thanks,
Dave

Does anyone know of one that does not require 2 keystrokes to enter A-F?
That's one of things I don't like about the ones I've seen.

There are at least two models of FX-115. The Casio site shows two and 
Amazon have three. So watch out when buying one.
