subject: Not All LED ID Badges or NameBadges are the same! [print this page] Not All LED ID Badges or NameBadges are the same!
For instance, some badges are available in several different colors. Blue badges use battery power twice as fast as red. White badges uses batteries twice as fast as blue. In all LED Scrolling ID Name Badges, the brighter the color, the faster they use up the batteries. Our red is super bright and always the easiest to read.
LED Scrolling ID / Name Badges from some manufacturers hold longer messages or may contain multiple messages. Some of our competition tout this as a significant advantage for their product. The problem is that upon actual use, the longer the message, the harder it is to read them and too much is just as bad as too little. Most people will not read long text based messages or find that they do not know what they read after trying to read them.
Some other LED scrolling badges require you to master numerous steps just to switch from message to message. Some LED Scrolling ID / NameBadges even require the use of a computer to program your message. The problem with these badges is the fact you must have access to a computer, your software and your cables, just to program a new or different message. This could prove to be an obstacle if you are away from your home or computer. If you arrive at a show and realize you forgot to preprogram your LED Scrolling ID / Name Badges, you have a problem. With our badges these and other problems are non-existent. Our product is self contained. Our LED display is red for optimum battery life, the message is up to 50 characters. You can say a lot but not too much. Beware of ads such as "deluxe", "new & improved", "most advanced". All LED Scrolling Badges do the same thing........SCROLL YOUR MESSAGE!, however there is a BIG difference in the quality, ease of operation and the life of the product from one manufacturer to another. You can buy cheaper badges that probably won't last, but you can't buy a more dependable, longer lasting, higher quality product than our LED Scrolling ID / Name Badge! This is an important factor to consider if you are purchasing for RESALE! No retailer wants unhappy customers returning their defective badges. If you care about the products that you buy or sell, then you should note that our badges are manufactured to our own high quality standards and designed for easy use. If you are looking for low quality, very low priced badges, then our product is not for you!
Some ID / Name badges fasten by pin, leaving holes in your favorite garments. Ours fasten by using strong magnets built into the back of the badge. People who have pacemakers or are sensitve to magnets should avoid this type, but otherwise they are the easiest and best to use.
Finally, make sure the LED Programmable Scrolling ID / Name Badges you purchase have adjustable scrolling speeds so you can adjust your message to scroll faster or slower.
When considering the purchase of an LED Programmable Scrolling ID / Name Badge, look especially for the following:
a.. You will want to be aware of the battery life of your product and be sure it operates on a readily available, inexpensive battery - like ours!
b.. You will want to be sure the LED Scrolling Badge you buy holds enough characters for a real message, but that you aren't paying extra for the "ability" to display a message that is too long to read easily
c.. You will want to be certain your LED Programmable Scrolling ID / Name Badge can be programmed internally on its own keypad - like ours!
d.. You will want a ID badge that allows you to adjust the speed of the message scroll - just like ours!
e.. You will want to be sure your LED Programmable Scrolling ID / Name Badge fastens to your clothing safely with a magnet so as not to damage your clothing - just like ours!
