Hello, we have a similar instrument and have similar charges (for available microscpopes you follow the link in my signature.
LSM 510META NLO $25 US inside user, $50 outside user, free training for 2 sessions, users must pass a written exam before using the instruments on their own. I am not sure how this compares with the current exchange rate!

Sorry for repeating myself - I posted a similar query 3 or 4 years ago, but
as it is now high time for me to increase our charges I'm wondering what to
increase them to.
We have a well-subscribed Zeiss 510 Meta with UV, Argon and 2 HeNe lasers.
At present I charge internal users (within our Institute) £20.00 per hour
and external users £25.00 per hour.
(I don't charge for inductions which I give to new users, which are
typically one, two or sometimes three sessions of 2 hours each; or help to
relative beginner users, which amount to the odd half hour here or there.)
I am considering increasing to £30 and £35 respectively.
Is this about right?
Views?
Thanks in advance.
Danny
