GS Glowseen Lighted tip Penlight,LED Ballpoint Flashlight Writing Pens for Night Writer - 2 PK (Red & White Light)

Great buy, good price. One pen with a red light and one with white - they work well.

The pen lights up where you want to see but the light is quiet bright at the pen point and it's also the area you want to look at when writing. If the pen could have a light shield keeping the light pointing down, that would be an improvement. Given that there is nothing on the marked (that I can find), this is a very good way of being able to write in the dark and see what you are writing.

I'm a song-writer, and I get most of my inspirations at night. If I don't write my ideas down straight away, they're forgotten by morning. And if I turn on a light to write them down, it wakes my wife. So for years I've bought pens that light up at the tip. But with the first few makes that I tried, the battery and ink were not replaceable, and when either ran out the pen became useless for its intended purpose. So I was very glad to find this Glowseen make where the battery pack and ink cartridge are both replaceable. You get two pens in a pack – one with red light, one with white light. It's well made and well designed, with just the right level of light to light up the paper near the point of the pen. The red one especially does not wake my wife (although the click occasionally does). They write easily and smoothly too. So I was very happy for the first 6 months – until I changed the batteries. When reassembled, neither pen would light up. I dismantled and reassembled them, and the red one started working again. The white one did not, so I emailed the Support address given on the instruction leaflet. I got a reply within a few hours, promising to send me a replacement. It arrived a few days later - and with extra pens as an apology! Of the replacements, one white one did not light up, until I dismantled it, and reassembled it. Then it worked fine. There must be some subtle aspect of the assembly such that, occasionally, electrical contact is not made. The instruction sheet seems clear, although it's in tiny print and the English is not perfect. Perhaps the company could print the instructions in larger print, and/or put a video on the Web showing how to reassemble the pen after changing the battery pack. My reply from Support was signed by “Julia”. I'm in the UK. I notice all the other reviews of this product are from the US, and one of those says he too got a reply from “Julia”. So I get the impression of a small company that really cares about customer relations. And it is a well-made product, perfectly designed for its purpose.

Worth the money, comfortable in the hand not too heavy plus the ability to write in these darker nights had no problems as yet but maybe how long the batteries last but will find that out later all in all good purchase. Thank you.

These are perfect for what I needed them for

I've been working on a dream log, and one of the challenges I've faced is what to do when I wake up and want to record a dream. If I turn on a lamp, I'll wake up my partner and also myself. And I really don't want to get out of bed and go to another room to put something down in my journal. I've recommended this to some of my fellow dream journalers who loved the idea of a lighted pen. This pen is the solution to that dilemma. With a simple click, a light near the ball-point tip is emitted, and once the pen is close to paper, it illuminates the page well enough to write without a lot of light being added away from the page. If I had one wish, it would be a tiny one - that the "click" was not quite as loud. The pen also works without the light, so if you are in and out of a dark environment you don't need to carry two different pens or use up the battery for the light when it's not needed.

These are great pens, but they are very bright. I got them so I could not down ideas I had at night without having to turn on my lights and disrupt my sleep, but they are quite bright. I suppose that is a good thing since they will help you write in the dark. So far I'm pretty happy with them, though I don't use them very much since I don't actually need to write in the dark very often. They have a nice weight and a smooth metal exterior which makes it feel like a good quality pen. I think it's a good value, they are attractive pens, and they are very simple and easy to use when you need to write in the dark!

I advised a pen I received was not working. They asked me to provide an address so they could send me another. I threw out the first pen thinking they were going to follow through. They never did. Not a happy customer! I am updating my review. The seller did contact me and went above and beyond to make things right! I am VERY happy with my purchase now and would definitely buy again! The new pens all work! Yay and I LOVE them!!!

The pen that originally came with my 4" x 6" Aluminum Covered notebook had failed; the metal clip on the side of the pen had broken off and the led light no longer worked. The pen itself is designed to hold the notebook closed, and these pens matched the original perfectly! Nice also, to have a red led light option! The pen itself doesn't hold both colors at once, and you can't change the light on the pen, you have to buy the pen, specify which color led you would like it to have, red or white. Both are bright enough to see what you're writing without any other lighting. After a month of use, the pens have held up well.

ordered 2 pens a red and a white. they are great. i keep white light one at home by my night stand on a pad and am giving red one to my son in the military for night land nav. it is all plastic it would be nicer if they had an all metal/ aluminium one. If i could have 3 wishes they would be : 1. a green light (to not ruin night vision) pen so that the red contour lines on military maps dont get washed out . 2. when you click the light on, that it not shine back up into your eyes...if only all the light went straight down onto the paper around the pen. 3. that this pen could use my "Space Pen (rite in the rain) " refills .... even still, this pen is so worth it if you are keeping it by the bed or you are someplace that dont always want to have to turn on the light to write stuff down.
