Hi Lenny, Thank you for your response. Could you tell me if your talking tape is called the Pro Tape by Maxi Aids? I can't find a brand name for the one on their website and in talking to customer service they can't find a brand either. They refer to the one they sell as the Pro Tape. When I ask them if it is a Cobolt they don't know.
Thanks again, Mike ----- Original Message ----- From: Lenny McHugh To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, March 02, 2008 10:31 AM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] talking tape measure another use Hi Mike, I have the Cobolt model. I first purchased it from England. I believe that Maxiaids also carries it. I have two of them. I had one that failed and shipped it back to England for repairs. While wating I purchased a second. After about 3 years the second one failed and I shipped it back and had the repaired one as a backup They were very kind they did not charge me for any repair.. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike Barbara Kimo & Jumbo Brunner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Sunday, March 02, 2008 12:44 PM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] talking tape measure another use hi Lenny, Could you please reply with the brand,model, and where to purchase the talking tape measure you are using? Thank you, Mike ----- Original Message ----- From: Lenny McHugh To: Handyman-Blind Sent: Sunday, March 02, 2008 9:25 AM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] talking tape measure another use I found this quite interesting. I was showing a contractor my talking tape measure. He wanted information on where to purchase a unit. He thinks that it can help teach some of his workers how to read a tape measure. It reminded me of the time that someone from the Department of Defense in 1980 contacted me about my talking computer. He wanted to purchase 100 units because he had people in the warehouse that could not read.
