I purchased the exam pen by Wizcom couple of years ago, think it cost about £150 at the time, and in that time I’ve only ever had one candidate wishing to use it.
It can be used with or without headphones. It’s a bit of novelty really, it takes a bit of practice moving it over the text at the correct speed and angle, it is rather slow at reading the words and not 100%
accurate.

Subject: Reading Pens,
Good Morning All,
Friday at last!
Just wondering if anyone out there in the land of exams uses reading pens? If so have you or can you use headphones with them and what are the costings ? Or do you use something else such as read to write?
If anyone can help or offer guidance it would just make this week end on a brilliant note!
Wishing you all a relaxing weekend.
Kind regards
Jen
