I am using a Symbolic scanner for this, and combined with a practical wooden
plate with the handheld placed using bur tape together with a used roller
pen (empty from ink, and fastened to the plate with a wire) to tap with, is
a working solution. The scanning device can also be used in the extracting
room where the supers with barcode is passing a reader combined with a
weight and thereby recording the honey harvest. I recommend that the most
handheld data is obtained by tapping and as little as possible is writing.
