Unique Characteristics Of Open Pro

As the upgraded version of Open 2, Open Pro determines to provide a better user experience.

The most important advantage that divides Open Pro from its predecessor is, it possesses a green laser pointer. Therefore, Open Pro is an EDC pen with a LED light as well as a green pointer beam. This innovative 3-in-1 design offers more choices for its users: writing, reading, presenting, and so on.

Also, the body part of Open Pro is longer and slimmer, just to assure a more comfortable grip. At the same time, the LED light has moved from the upper part onto the pocket clip, so as to make sure the light won't be blocked when clipped to shirt pockets or bags. While the green pointer for accurate pointing and marking locates at the tail of the LED part.

Though the L-type bolt was adopting from Open 2, it now controls not only the pen tip but also the LED light and the green pointer.

This intuitive operation is as follows: single bolt swing to access or recess the pen tip, quickly tap up once to turn on the LED, slide up and hold to activate the pointer.

If you were looking for a stylish yet practical gift, Open Pro definitely is an excellent choice.
