I think i would have fainted if i had gotten one of these tricorders back in the 70's. Back then our imaginations were more active than kids these days, so yard debris made pretty good landing party gear, but one of these DST Tricorders would have been like finding buried treasure for me.

Back in the 1980's, I spent a good portion of my allowance on a tricorder. But it was the ST3 model and it wasn't half as good as the DST at a quarter of the price.

Push center button and the high whistle scan begins and the moire moves. Very nice and the sound lasts a while until you press the same button again and it stops.
I have no complaints...

Since the scanner is a different design, I know that the lack of a rotating sensor won't be an issue, unlike the Medical.
I've seen the Medical, and dispite the hand crank medical scanner, I thought it was pretty good.

I'm adding it to the Phaser and Communicator as props to go with the TOS Uniform I got from Star Trek: The Experience.
Basically, it's for Comic-Con and other conventions where appropriate.
Once I get the new movie uniform, I'll use the Playmatest Phaser and Communicator as props.

The scanner sound goes for a while when you push the middle button. Ran a test earlier and it went for 3 minutes without stopping, I pushed the button to end it.
How long the actual endurance I'm wary, I do not want to run my batteries down! Though I did put some Energizer Ultimate Lithium Batteries in it.

EDIT: Make that 3 minutes 8 seconds...

The Moire motor is a little noisy, but aside from that, it looks good.
I managed to get one with Spock at the correct pitch, which was good, and I actually like the little handhend scanner device with te rotating color LED.
I might keep a Lollipop in the lower compartment for the sake of "Authenticity"
