IceInSpace Red-Light Pens - Would you buy one?

iceman (Mike) · #1 13-10-2005, 06:35 AM

David P sent me one of these as a sample, and it looks and works great.

There's a small red light in the bottom spongy bit where you grip the pen, and you use the retractor switch to turn the light on and off.

You can use it as a pen without the light on, or you can use it as a pen with the light on.

It would be great for taking observing/imaging notes out by your telescope, as it would light up enough of your page to see while you write, without turning on the light on your headlamp.

If we had enough interest, I'd get a run done with the IceInSpace logo engraved where you see the "Pens Europe" logo on the picture below.

The cost would be approximately $10 each. Vote in the poll with your interest.

I'd have to say no to this one. I have two of those pens already, part of a sale from the US they threw in a couple! Nice Idea though

Why buy a $10 pen when you can by a $1300 laptop with $800 MS Office that would do the same job

Oh and a generator to run the Laptop if your out in the bush.

I'd like one.

But then my middle name is "Strikerh0ughy"

I'd like one too, c'mon h0ughy a third one wouldn't go astray, especially if the others disappear in to a biro vortex (for the uninitiated, a biro vortex is sort of like a black hole except it's a place where missing biros disappear to especially in office environments) ....

Mike, we better put the word "Nagler" on the pen and bump up the price to $100!!!

Striker (Tony) · #7 13-10-2005, 11:44 AM

Yep 2 for me.

Can you change the battery or is it a one off throw away deal?

iceman (Mike) · #9 13-10-2005, 01:36 PM

I meant to say polo shirts David.....what's going on with them. Are they still going to be available with the IIS logo on them or have they be replaced by the pen?

ic · #18 14-10-2005, 06:23 PM

I'd be interested in buying two pens.

Thanks,

Ian.
