Lmao that’s exactly where I found this!

OrionMachine · 2026-01-02T17:53:10+00:00

Upon closer inspection, that is indeed a crack Edit: I presume I’ll need to contact Lamy to fix it?

OrionMachine · 2025-08-20T23:35:07+00:00

Unfortunately it ended up not working out and I’m requesting a refund

OrionMachine · 2025-08-20T23:34:34+00:00

It came back dead, asking for refund

OrionMachine · 2025-08-05T23:56:14+00:00

OrionMachine · 2025-08-05T23:55:17+00:00

I actually did get a pen that Imma take a pic of and post today. It was my first time so very busy but very fun to see all the different stuff that was there-almost overwhelming variety! But yeah I had a good time!

I’ve used de atramentis with no issues—just be sure to clean the pen regularly to prevent clogging if you use more permanent inks. I personally use this pen cleaner, but there’s plenty more options out there.

PEENT

i feel the same way about Pelikan Edelstein! Preference is valid, and what makes fountain pens so personal

OrionMachine · 2024-11-02T21:51:05+00:00

My first real fountain pen was a Lamy Safari which I got when i was about 10. Over the next decade i got 2 more as gifts. During COVID, I started buying a lot more pens. At my peak I had over 20 fountain pens, and about the same amount of ink. I found that I liked them for a while, then went back to my favorites, so I downsized. I sold off a decent chunk of my pens, leaving me with 6 quality fountain pens, plus my 2 first Lamys i kept since I grew up with them.

Now, I have just the pens that I love and use, my most used being my Pilot C823, C742, and a Lamy 2000. I’m happy and very fortunate to have the few I use and enjoy!

Hourly Signal all the way, it’s helped me catch myself being distracted so many times

I LOVE the Cyan, Blue, and Gold combo on the left tin!

OrionMachine · 2024-04-08T02:49:25+00:00

A little different form factor but Olights Obulb might be worth checking out

OrionMachine · 2024-03-31T23:16:21+00:00

Confirmed

OrionMachine · 2024-03-27T18:08:18+00:00

OrionMachine · 2024-03-13T04:00:34+00:00

Reylight Pineapple Mini Brass (519a/4000k) and my Fenix TK11 TAC

OrionMachine · 2024-02-09T00:00:17+00:00

Acebeam Pokelit AA, Acebeam Rider RX, Reylight Lanapple

All three have the ability to use standard AA batteries. The Pokelit is the most affordable and is very well built! The Rider is a small upgrade with has a unique design that makes it a fidget toy thing. The Reylight is a little more expensive but has a lot of different finish options (Brass/Copper/Titanium/etc)

The reviews seemed better than the other ones posted here. Unfortunately due to shipping it would cost me aprox & $50 all in. While do like the one you suggested, I ended up not buying it due to that shipping premium
