Scrolling LED Name Badge II

This practical gadget will come in handy at CES or MacWorld so everyone will know your name. It’s the Scrolling LED Name Badge II and it’s packed with name badge features. This badge is fully customizable with changing messages and it works similar to the marquee html tag, with scroll speed options and you can adjust the brightness. This 1 ounce product can store up to 6 messages and they are easy to read because LED technology will never let you down.

So how does it connect to your shirt? If you’re a geek you guessed magnets and you are correct. It’s smaller than your typical Visa or Mastercard and the battery life is impressive scrolling up to 18 hours. The badge can be used at multiple events indoors and outdoors, because the highly visible screen attracts the eye regardless of the light setting. Sorry, it doesn’t play mp3s or dvd but that will come in the future.
