LSD for certain, I've never used their equal. I like the 36' set with one real glow in the dark rod and the rest normal (Creepzit pro I think). The only accessory I use regularly is the long chinese finger trap style wire pulling sock, it works really well. I've never used the ball chain and only occasionally use the wire or plastic whisk. The lighted tip is new and sounds cool and useful.

I also have a 2' rod they gave me at cedia, and it gets used fairly often, usually lieka giant sewing needle for insulation or in gardens for speaker wire.

The lighted tip is new? I thought they had an optional tip with an LED ten years ago.

The LED are good for some things, not so much for others. Too flexible for horizontal reach, but they can be doubled up, if it's not too far. I have BES and they're thicker, stiffer, smoother (I got tired of the fiberglass sticking into my hands when I used LSD) and it's easier to stick a tiny rare earth magnet on the tip because there's more surface area.

For long horizontal reach, I bought a collapsible 20' surf casting rod- I taped a hook to the tip and because it's less than a pound, it's not hard to handle when it's fully extended.

My mechanic told me, "I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder."
