Pineider Pen Filler Inkwells Reviews

This is a winner! After watching a short video of how to use it, I had no problems inking my pens using it. It makes no mess, like I usually do lol. I love how easy it is to pack in my edc and take some extra ink with me. I don't have to worry about any leaks.

very nice well packaged

I have discovered these Pineider pen fillers are the perfect implement for filling a Conklin Crescent Filler all the way up. Seal the section into the filler, turn the assembly bottom-side-up, squeeze the crescent twice, and it is completely full. No more worrying with the non-demonstrator crescent fillers if it's full or not.

Here you are a very useful device that it is a great mate of your fountain pens

Handy ink filler and travel inkwell. Great, usable design. Cost is a bit high, but it does what it says it will.

Fantastic price and works great for filling my pens!

I like this pen filler. It does its job well, and it has measurements marked right on the bottle. It was a little weird coming apart to clean it. I prefer to decant my inks when I fill my pens, and then just keep refilling from the initial decant. This allowed me to get an extra full fill first try, and the pen cleanup afterwards was easy. Dumped the rest of the ink in a sample vial for next time since I reuse my fillers. You could also just store the ink in it for next time. It is a little pricey for what it does, but it shouldn't have to be replaced ever, either.

The Pen Filler is the best way I have found to get my pens full of ink.

So far the Pineider Pen Filler has worked okay on the few cartridge and piston filler pens I've tried, up to a Pelikan M1000.
It will not work with the Visconti pens with the Hook Safe Lock system since you can't shove them in deep enough. Just make sure that your pen conforms to the two gaging holes in the box, passing through the large hole but not the small one. Then I test it first with plain water to be on the safe side. It seems to be a viable and economical solution.

I tested this filler on five different pens: a Noodler's Ahab, a Noodler's Konrad, a Nemosine Singularity, a Pilot Kaküno, and a Pilot Metropolitan. The Metropolitan was less than satisfactory, in that the section had to go deep into the top to seal and I managed to spill ink getting it back out. It did fill, though, so from that standpoint it was successful.

In use, once the vial has been filled one removes the plug from the top and inserts the pen's nib, turning the lower collar to cause the blue rubber sleeve inside to expand and seal the section in place. Then one inverts the assembly and activates the filler. The air in the ink reservoir bubbles out when the filler is reactivated, and the reservoir is completely filled. The problem I had with the Metropolitan was the section had to go deep into the blue sleeve to seal, leaving the converter the only thing sticking out. Pulling on it did not remove the section, which led to me disassembling the top and pushing the section back out.

This is a slick idea, and it works very well. But Pineider? Can we have a slightly thicker rubber sleeve as an available option?
