Write and take notes even in pitch-black darkness without any external light, batteries, or electricity. All you need is a pen and this patented GlowPad that comes with a waterproof notepad. In the days of yore, you would have been burnt as a witch for having this. Now, your friends will just ask where you found that magical marvel. And you can lead them to Varusteleka.

GlowPad

The use of the GlowPad writing plate is super easy. It starts to glow when exposed to artificial or natural light. The maximum glowing time is approx. six hours depending on how long it was exposed to the light. You can reach the max in less than a minute of light exposure.

Take the plate with you, and when you need to write or draw, place it under the sheet of paper you use, and it functions as a self-illuminating writing plate. As a bonus, it prevents the text from being copied on the next sheet of your notepad.

You can also use the GlowPad to illuminate objects at close range or even for signaling.

Waterproof notepad

GlowPad comes with a a Finnish waterproof notepad made from the byproduct waste of limestone mines. Not only waterproof, but warproof as well – these are much more durable than your regular paper notepads. There's really no downside to this.

• Dimensions 96 x 148 mm (3.8" x 5.8")
• 7 x 7 mm (0.3" x 0.3") squares

Modestone's limestone-based paper is 100% waterproof, you can have a piece submerged for months without it taking any damage! It is also extremely resistant to wrinkling. A really neat feature is the fact that on top of the usual pens and pencils you can also use metal such as keys or bullets to write!

We recommend using a pencil on these.

Recycling

As said before, these are made of byproduct waste of limestone mines, which means the pads are a vulgar display of ecological thinking.

Made in Finland

Made in Finland. Modestone is a prime example of Finnish innovation. Modestone notepads are currently in law enforcement and military use in Finland, and they’re steadily gaining fame out there in the big world too.
