Headstock tuner suitable for gigs?

Ive got the Peterson one and have no issues at all with it. I too stand next to a drummer and haven't had it picking them up.
Its much better at setting the intonation than my Korg DT4.
I dont tend to go out of tune at gigs so hardly need to use it once the sound check has finished but i have been known to keep it on the headstock, although i have it on the back rather than the front in full view of the audience.
