You can buy a replacement for about $3-$7

It might need a new battery, but it is probably just as cost effective to buy a new one.

I highly recommend Radio Shack's pen light, really works well! I don't believe it's too expensive either.

Heck, I'm a self-proclaimed "equipment freak." Buy a new one... With all the cute colors... you can buy one for each set of scrubs, LOL...

BTW... WeeBabyRN, I LOVE your avatar. That puppy is too darn cute & is almost identical to my 63 pound, 8 month old, thinks he's a lap dog Boxer baby.... Too sweet!!!

My old penlight was what, three bucks?? That price point screams "disposable"! :)

I just bought a new one, one that clicks ON and STAYS on, it's a true joy since I use it as a mini-flashlight to look at pump settings, check draining output, look at whatever quickly in the dark (I work nights) without disturbing my pts.

It cost about five bucks in a uniform store.
