I've used strips at switch plates, counter edges, and other 'landmarks' in the darkroom- after a while you can navigate with ease- as well as if the lights were on! Most photostores can get it for you if it's not in stock- non-radioactive and doesn't fog film nor paper. Great if you have a dedicated darkroom- and if you have hard floors, get a thick foam floor mat! If you are like me, you'll find that you will spend 2-3 hours in there and lose track of time... but then your feet will let you know! Makes standing at the enlarger a much more comfortable endeavor! Tips I learned back when I timed exposures with, "One butterfly, two butterfly, three...." Dan dwpost@msn.com
