I'd get the pen-type, for two reasons. They use inexpensive, easy-to-find AA batteries. My 100mW uses a 123 cell; pricier and not as common. The pen types (the narrow ones, at least) fit those two-ring "finder" brackets, so you can use it as a telescope finder if desired. I wish they had the pen types when I bought my 100mW. Maybe when and if it dies, I'll spring for the slim one. Mine's about 3/4" in diameter. On Thu, Feb 21, 2013 at 5:49 PM, Siegfried Jachmann <siegfried@jachmann.org>wrote:
I'm thinking of two, one for me, one for my brother. Would you go for one of the pen types like the one I sent of the physically bigger ones?
