IceInSpace Red-Light Pens - Would you buy one?

[cahullian]

Looks good Mike I would gladly buy one for the cause

[Rodstar (Rod)]

Yep, one for me too, Mike.

[chunkylad (David)]

I will join the throng: one for me too please mike!!!

[Moonman (Michael)]

I'll probably lose it in the first five minutes but what the hell

I'll have one.

[ballaratdragons (Ken)]

Seeing as there are no Red-Light pencils for me to sketch out at the scope I guess I'll have to settle for the Red-Light Pen for taking notes and crossing items of my 'search' list.

I'll go for one please.

One of my boys will probably knock it off and read in bed under the covers with it when supposedly sleeping!!!! My daughter does that with the light from her mobile phone

[slice of heaven]

I'll grab 2 thanks Mike.

Like Ken, they would be great if they came in a pencil, would be damn handy
for sketching.

Rob, Davo P might be able to tell us if they are available in a pencil. That would be fantastic if they did!!!!!!!

It is very hard sketching at the scope. I try make a rough sketch with a little red torch clipped onto my EP case and then finish it inside out of memory. It would be incredible to sketch the whole object at the EP!

i get a sample pen once a month, but will check for a pencil version from the supplier!

i thought it was a joke re pencil until i remebered that typex (white out) at night might be a bit hard to apply to mistakes!

yes a nice pencil would be nice!

I will do my best gentleman!

Me? Joke?

Actually is was a serious statement

Geez it's hard to be taken serious occasionally when I goof off too much

[iceman (Mike)]

sorry to hear that CS
just that design didnt look like it would lend itself to a pencil design unless you are talking about a lead refill/replace design - i have never liked that type of pencil myself. And the power of the pencil theme goes back aways on this forum eh Ken .
what would be good would be a slip on red light similair to whats on the pen. that would go on normal pencils - i could use one for lots of stuff - meteor counts/film exp. time details to name a few.

[Striker (Tony)]

Payed for 3...bargain.

I will sell them this time next year for $100 each...haha

[Moonman (Michael)]

I
Given that Price I'll take thee as well,

Then i WON'T PANIC IF i MISPLACE ONE.
