I thought it was no longer being produced, unless there is a new version on
the go now?

Kind Regards,

Hi, I travelled to Edinburgh last summer to test on out, I think
it's a very expensive pile of junk but maybe some people like it the handle
is huge and it looks and has the feel of a mettle detector. I wouldn't
bother but it is up to you.

Thanks Eleanor for your message, I heard that there would be an
exhibition on 4th November in London so I got to think over whether I
should go there and give a try with one of my brother who also as

afterward.
Much appreciated for your info that can be help making my mind up.

I have heard someone on NFBUK mention one and I think he found it OK
but all he said about it would not make me rush out to get one. On
the other hand I tried one once at an exhibition and as I have some
residual vision which is useful in daylight I would not have good
vision in a dark place at night. I therefore tried the cane having
got the person to place objects in my path and I kept my eyes closed.
All I can say is that as I approached the object I did feel a
vibration but we didn't have anything to simulate head height so I am
not sure if it just detects to the level of the tip of the cane. I
liked it personally and would have purchased if it had cost £30!
