Why the Electric Perkins Brailler
Easier Typing: Reduces key force requirements to produce quality braille, allowing a person who has weak fingers, whose hands are not fully functional or who has arthritis to braille quicker and more comfortably.
Faster Production: Reduced key force also enables users to increase production.
Same great features as the Classic Perkins Brailler: Durable, can use for complex math and language, and time tested.
Reliable Support: One year warranty and repair service training availability, ensuring that any problem with your product is resolved quickly.
