PILOTHi-Tec-C Coleto Mechanical Pencil Unit for 0.5mm Lead (LHKRF-18H5)

If you like your coleto pen yet need to take some notes with pencil, this one is for you.

I was a little concerned about the mechanical pencil for the pilot Hi-tec-C coleto pen, all other mechanical pencils seems to need a complexed system to work. then I got it in the mail and it didn't look like much, where did the lead refil go? How will it advance when I need it to? Well, all my fears were laid to rest once I installed it. The pencil worked, there is an engagement spot on the lower end of the throw that allows for the lead to advance and once you are done advancing the lead it pops back in place but not all the way so the pencil stays out and not retract into the pen. To hide the pencil to have to give it a in and up flick just like the ink cartridges. The head is bigger than the ink ones but that is understandable cause of its "dual action." I would causion that you don't try to pull out the wrong end, the intructions are in Japanese but have small drawing to reference, the end that pulls out to replace the refil 0.5mm leads in the tip section so don't pull on the other end, i tried and almost broke it. All in all its a great addition to your pen, now I can get rid of my other mechanical pencils, and just have my Coleto pen with a varied colors to chose from and a pencil all rolled into one.

I bought the 0.5 pencil. It works great. I use it in my planner.

Look delicate but really works. The barrel and the clicker feels loose by design. The plastic end where the pencil lead comes out is easy to pull out. I was able to put 4 pencil leads into the barrel at a time and keep it functioning fine. After putting the loaded pencil into the slot, the first click gets the pencil head to show up. Then, click again to advance the lead. Very easy to use (if you don't overthink it!).

Thought it was broken when I 1st got it but then I saw a video on how to insert it and it is not broken so don't worry if you get it and it looks "off". Once it's inserted it works as expected.

Great addition to my coleto pen. Thought it was broken at first, but had to watch YouTube video to figure out how to advance the lead.

This is the ONE thing the BIC 4-color pens don't have. Though small and flimsy, it will do the job if you have it already mounted in you Hi-Tec-C Coleto pen and need a #2 pencil to fill in a scan-sheet right away.

I still haven't figured out how to use it.

Comfortable writing. Really happy with the purchase. Recommended.

Este portaminas es la adición perfecta a tu Pilot Coleto. Me es muy útil no tener que sacar mi lápiz cada vez que quiero hacer una nota rápida, solo clic y listo.Lo único que me gustaría saber es como recargar las minas según la marca, en el empaque la ilustración no es muy clara y obviamente todo está explicado en japonés. Yo las meto por abajo, aunque siento que así te arriesgas mucho a que las minas se rompan.

ハイテックはサインペンとシャープの組み合わせが使いやすいです

add a mechanical pencil to the multi pen. makes the pen perfect!

always excellent a fabulous system I uses a five refill pen and even though it would be nice to be able to buy refills locally this system allows me to buy exactly what I want and use with no other waste.
