Back when my college switched from chalkboards to whiteboards, but before they put projectors in the classrooms (so there was no other way of displaying information to the class), I could easily go through a marker a day. (A day of several math classes, each of which involved lots of writing and working out problems on the board.)
Yup. The light in the choir loft is VERY yellow! Great call! I am also developing a cataract in my left eye, which puts yellow circles and/or rainbow circles around glaring lights (car headlights at night, in particular).
The fountain pen brand Noodler’s makes dry erase ink called “Bluerase”. I believe it even comes with a free marker pen at most retailers. Otherwise, you can buy one from a brand called Platinum for like $3.
Ditch the pointless disposables and go with refillable markers, I say.
