I'm interested in picking one up for my personal laptop but I don't know which one to get. Are there any brands in particular that are worth the investment? I've seen some completely malfunction after a few uses and others not work at all. Thanks in advance.

Many comments are inaccurate. It is not the responsibility of supply (me) to provide ANYONE, regardless of rank, with items for personal usage. PFC Mullins stated as much in his initial posting that it's for his personal laptop. It is incumbent on each individual to purchase personal items themselves. I agree with coming onto a site like this for information on making a purchase but we should not be suggesting an illegal activity, even though it may have been an inadvertent suggestion.
Like MAJ Weiss suggested, the SCMs are great CAC Readers. If you would like a very nice portable one, check out the one below. It folds up nice and neatly into about the size of a thumb drive. I have one and carry it with me. These cost $17.99 but well worth it.
SSG Burns are you referring to the pens made by the blind? If so, you can keep them. You'll not hear me looking for them.

SSG(Join to see)There are some really good points on both sides (albeit some are rude). I believe this is an issue in the eye of the beholder.
I am a Supply Sergeant as well first off. I would not/will not provide cac readers to soldiers for home use strictly because of availability in my unit. I have to file a CAPR which is a huge waste of time and money to get with GPC. And they are $70 with an NSN. So I keep to Minimum.
But on the same issue, I provide (some) paper to squad leaders for home use. I know that some may get used to print a private invoice but that happens in offices too. I write a large portion of my ncoers, counselings, and other leaders book fillers at home. So do my squad leaders. Not going to buy their ink but the paper is for the good of the corps. It is proper oversight and vigilance that prevents abuse.
I am not afraid of being called a stingy supply sergeant, but there are way too many out there that are plain dictators over supply and refuse all most all request.

Well stated, battle! I too dislike the bad labels placed on supply. It's ridiculous and unprofessional for any one of us to act in such manner. We are not only accountants (that's what we do with the CDR's property) but also stewards of the taxpayers money. I have no problem issuing out supplies as requested but I will always ask for what purpose, and make a decision based on the answer. If there are further questions, then I will seek the guidance of the BN or CO CDR, or the respective XOs.

CSMMike MaynardSSG Redondo - if the only thing that a CAC Reader allows me to do is to access government websites - OWA, AKO, MilSuite, HRC, etc, how would that be classified as 'personal' use.
I'm not aware of any 'personal' uses for the CAC readers - only work/job related and professional development related?

Your site is a lifesaver! I have been referring my Soldiers and peers there for a few years now. My only request is that you somehow procure a zip file of Lotusforms 3.5 since it's nearly impossible to get now, and version 4.0 is nearly impossible to get working. I just hope the Army switches to PDFs with a quickness.

Thanks for your reply SFC Watkins, glad to know you've been referring people my way. Are you having problems with the current download of Lotus Forms? I do recommend people use the AKO download link instead of the one for CHESS for both Lotus Forms and eSign. I haven't heard anything more on digitally signing PDFs either. I wonder if it will have something to do with the new OERs due to come out in April? We have a class the last week of this month on them. I'll to remember to bring that up. Thanks again for responding

I've never seen a unit supply issue CAC readers for personal use. If it's for your job 'at work use' then maybe, if they are available. It sounds like you few are taking home government property. I would suggest spending the few bucks you have to on the iogear reader.

Actually, my battery issued them out to all of us. We signed hand receipts and everything.
