I have a focus 14 4th Gen I would guess as it is the previous model. The only
thing I don’t like about it is I wish it had at least 20 cells. Laughs! I have
had hands on with the new 40 cell fifth gen and it is really nice and sturdy.
So I bet the 14 cell will be good as well.

Freedom Scientific Introduces a New Generation of the Focus 14 Blue Braille
Display
The most RUGGED portable Braille display available on the market today -
drop-tested to MIL-STD-810-G.
(St. Petersburg, Florida - December 15, 2017)
Freedom Scientific introduced the Focus 14 Blue Generation 5 Braille Display
designed to be extra rugged to meet the needs of today’s active portable user.
Built with an aluminum extrusion on a steel base, the housing of the Focus 14
Blue is stronger than ever before. This eliminates any torsion that could be
transmitted to the Braille cells, or other internal components. The housing
also incorporates bumpers that deform to absorb shock when the unit is dropped
on its end or accidentally knocked against a wall or door. For added
protection, the convenient carrying case lets you use your Braille display on
the go, without removing it.
Bluetooth® 4.1 connectivity lets you switch seamlessly between up to 5
Bluetooth devices. The USB 3.1c micro connector significantly increases the
ease of physical connection – it’s always right-side-up. For durability, the
USB connector has been engineered to “float”, so it is virtually impossible to
break.
Durability, comfort, and convenience make the Focus 14 Blue the perfect
companion for your smartphone, tablet, or laptop.
Additional information and technical specifications can be found at Freedom
Scientific.
The Focus 14 Blue is available for immediate shipment.
