Not sure I follow completely but we have just about every type out there that you can still get in the U.S. Go through the page and see if we do. If you don't see, I'm sorry but we don't have it.

Don't worry JK, you have the Champro and Markwort 3-dial-4/3/3 which would be all this simple/simon--indicators for dummies person could handle.

I was just hoping you could actually break the indicator with 3 showing up top in the strike wheel, 0 showing in the ball wheel and 3 showing on the out wheel. That way I could always say I had 3 strikes and 3 outs if ever asked.

Hope you had a busy Friday. Thanks for responding so quickly (you didn't have to respond at all since my question was a tongue in cheek question) on what I hope was one of your busier days.

:) I am a little slow sometimes. Might have been a little punch drunk from a busy sales day.

Why not an indicator with raised bumps on it, Braille-style, so we can place a fingertip upon it and feel what the count is?

You mean like the one I mentioned earlier?

Besides that, in today's digital / electronic / app craze, why someone hasn't trotted out even a prototype electronic indicator yet is beyond me.

I've seriously considered it. I haven't because tactile feedback I consider to be one of the best things you can do, and that's tricky on mobile devices. But it would be nice to have it "programmable" so you could have strike-first or ball-first, 4-ball and 3-strike or 3-ball and 2-strike, or even a scorekeeper and timeclock.

There are several apps available in the apple App Store.  Some even charge for the app!

Honigs's metal indicator with innings option is the best, in my opinion.  Light weight, quality, not cheap plastic in your hand

This topic amazes me. Such a primitive piece of equipment and yet, here we are.
