VT PenPad 7.7-Inch Graphic Pen Tablet (Black) Customer Review
I'm glad I ignored the negative reviews about the PenPad. One of the cons in this site is that the pen "comes apart in several pieces" when the barrels are separated to replace the battery. The pen I received consisted of just 3 pieces. The lower barrel where the nib and the electronics are housed, the screw-on upper barrel, and a piece (spacer) that slips into the upper barrel. Installing the AAA battery is actually quite straightforward.Another con was written about the extremely short life of the battery. I did not install the battery that came with my pad but installed a Sunbeam alkaline battery, the kind that is sold in packs of 4 for $1.00 US. These batteries are rated at 1200 mA Hr. The actual current draw of the pen that came with my pad is 0.12mA under all conditions of normal use: with the pen at rest next to or away from the pad, or with the nib actually touching or drawing on the pad. The life of a fresh battery (mine started out at 1.56 Volts) should be somewhere in the neighborhood of 1200/.12 or 10,000 hours, that's 416 days! I don't want to wait that long before posting so at this point after one full month of use, the pen is still going strong and the battery is at 1.485 Volts. If the battery needs to be replaced tomorrow, I'd still be pleased with its one month of service for $0.25. Also I am very pleased with all facets of the performance of the PenPad. My main use has been to edit photos in Photoshop and the pen makes selection tasks a breeze when compared to the mouse. I've also used the pen to draw rough sketches in Outlook and Word. The ability to chose among line widths and colors is very useful. I've not used a Wacom or other high-end tablet so I have no basis to compare the PenPad against a more expensive unit, but I can't see how its functionality could be much improved.
