The Fenghwa 27 is a very classic model of Fenghwa. In 1962, in response to the Sino-Indian border self-defense counter-attack in the field night writing needs, when the mainstream writing tools fountain pen and pencil for various reasons can not meet the needs, for this Fenghwa ballpoint pen factory developed a set of lighting ballpoint pen called Fenghua 27 type, and named after its development time. The pen is equipped with electric beads for recording at night or in darkroom operations. The pen was supervised by the PLA Artillery Command and was mostly distributed to officers above the company level of the various units at that time.

The circuit luminous structure is roughly this: the pen head and grip are made of transparent PMMA. The pen lever places the battery, small electric beads, forming a circuit. There are different switching structures depending on the model and pen function. Only two of these series have been found on the market at the moment: 27-1 and 27-4. Of these, 27-1 is a ballpoint pen and 27-4 is a mechanical pencil.
