In response to the review..., October 28, 2009
In response to the review by war, I'm sorry if you (or any other readers) got
the impression that I do not own the product. I had purchased and used the
pencil before I made the review.
I meant that I would have preferred the product be refillable in the same manner
as most pre-loaded mechanical pencils are refilled, as in, not by pushing a
piece of lead through the writing tip with the clicker held down, but through
the non-writing end. The non-writing end of the pencil is actually closed off by
the attachment of a plastic piece which holds the pencil in place within the pen
body.
I could understand why this pencil has such a limitation, since there is so
little room to spare inside the pen body as it is. I am otherwise delighted to
have this product available to me. I've been waiting for something like this for
a long time. If it makes everyone happy, I've given the product 4 stars this
time around.
war is correct; it is filled with 3 leads. The leads feel harder than HB, which
makes sense, since a softer lead with more graphite and less clay runs out more
quickly. It creates a lighter line, but the line does not smudge as easily.

Im using 3 of these in my 3 color pen. They all work perfectly despite one of
the previous reviews. The lead clicks out perfectly on each one. Ive also tested
5 of them on the 5 color pen with the same good result. It also fits in the
single color pen, which also works as advertised.

So long as you are careful and patient, this pencil component is easily refilled
and reconfigured. Better yet, now there are style/fit bodies with erasers, so
you can advance the lead from any slot. Presumably this means you can now
install several in the same body. The only problem is a little noise while
writing, but that is the fault of the body, not this component.

Actually, if you hold where the spring and gold colored metal is with one hand,
and the other hand on the tube, then pull, it comes apart to put the lead in.
I love this pencil, but just so everyone knows, you can only have one of these
per style-fit pen. You have to put in in the slot attached to the clip so you
can pump the lead out.

Also, I ordered 4 of these and they all came loaded with 2 full pieces of lead.
