  • I don't use multi-pens that often, but when I do I demand the best. So what's the top multi-pen right now? Here are some of my top picks!
    My favorites:
    - Jetstream 3 Color Slim Compact: • Jetstream 3 Color Slim...
    - Hi-Tec-C Coleto 2: amzn.to/2EhSniP
    - Hi-Tec-C Coleto 3: amzn.to/2E6KV9Z
    - Jetstream 3: amzn.to/2ErFaVR
    - Energel 3: amzn.to/2U5NoIm
    - Zebra Sarasa 3: amzn.to/2ErKJUd
    - Jetstream Prime 3+1: amzn.to/2BPDZgZ
    Stuff that's not bad, but I like less:
    - Jetstream Prime 3 Color: amzn.to/2ErxUcw
    - Jetstream 4+1: amzn.to/2GYaXiF
    - Rotring Quattro Executive (vintage)
    - Hi-Tec Coleto N line: amzn.to/2GYimia
    - Zebra Sarasa Select: amzn.to/2BS0hPs
    - Hi-Tec-C Coleto 500 or 1000: amzn.to/2ErsQ7Q / amzn.to/2GYmXkk

    Also, the Hi-Tec C Coletos have a mechanical pencil feature as well as an eraser feature that isn’t on top. I have a Coleto 3 with black ink, mechanical pencil and full length eraser. I used to carry all 3 separately but now they’re all in one. I erase like crazy so I like having a serious amount of eraser without having to wear down the back of my pen or take off a cap that I eventually lose anyway.

      I find the 0.5mm pencil too small in all the Hi-Tec C Coleto and Jetstream. I'm going to try the new Bic 3+1 which has a 0.7mm pencil. Unless there is a Hi-Tec C Coleto or Jetstream with 0.7mm but I have not seen it.

    I can see myself giving all the pens you present a try with the exception of one, the Uniball RE 3. I recommend the following: Zebra Surari 4-color 0.7 mm in transparent body (not fond of the body but the ink skips less or not at all when compared to the other four well-known hybrid inks), the Pilot Coleto 1000 in silver or black (more professional looking; not a fan of the 500's rubberized grip section), Uni Style Fit Meister 3 (the smooth metal makes it a bit difficult to secure a decent hold; I use a little washi tape), the Zebra Sarasa Select (not a fan of the body but the ink is nice with the pale blue and blue green being favorites of mine, and the Pilot Frixion Ball 2 Biz 2-color multi in pink or gray (most expensive of the five; recommend the 0.5 mm blue and green refills). Thanks for the video!

    I found the Jetstream 4&1 way more comfortable than most pens, mainly because of it's larger size. Far less likely to get writer's cramp and I found it a dream to write with. Different pens for different hands I suppose.

  • @chrislj2890
    @chrislj2890 Před 5 lety +5

    At work I've been carrying a Pentel EnerGel .5 permanent blue, a red, and an EnerGize pencil. Having a 2 + 1 would be great, but I want the EnerGel and I need the permanent ink. The regular refills are bigger than the 2 + 1 versions so I can't replace them. I placed an order today at Jet Pens and went ahead and ordered the 2 + 1 anyway just to get free shipping, although it's black instead of blue ink and non-permanent.
    That Jetstream Prime 3 + 1 looks really nice, but how does the ink compare to the EnerGel? This stuff is making fountain pens look very simple. 😳

    Nice vid! I appreciate your favorites perspective👍 I see that you really like the Jetstream Prime twist. I'm very curious what your comparison opinion is on it compared to the Skillcraft B3 Aviator. The B3 wasnt in your mix here and maybe it was because it has a pencil and it seemed you were comparing only multi pens without the pencil option? Or maybe you dont like its ink quality? I know you've done a review of the B3 as I've watched it but it seams very similar to the Jetstream Prime but you didn't include it in your list. I'm a big multi fan of multi's with the pencil option as I use both pens and the pencil for my daily writing/marking needs. For the cost, quality, capability, and construction durability I haven't found a better multi then the B3 for EDC use imo of course. I've had several quattros, many of the cheap plastic color clickers which are all function and no fashion imo, an Avery Triple Click that I liked pretty well, the Cross Tech 3 which costs too much imo, a Zebra Surari Sharbo which is pretty good, and many others that were not impressive enough to remember at this moment. None of which have bested the B3. The Jetstream Prime twist looks like it could be a real contender for me but the center bulge looks a little weird to me and I wonder how well it pockets with the lip from the bulge. I'm over the gravity clickers as I just dont like the actuation system, its gotta be twist for me.

    Hi! So I have a hi tec c coleto 5 and a hi tec c coleto 4, but you've said they run out of ink rather quickly. Can you please recommend one that doesn't run out as fast?
    -Hi Tec C Coleto 5 houses: pencil, eraser, black, blue & red.
    -Hi Tec C Coleto 4 houses: red, green, purple, baby blue
    They're used for note taking. I got them to reduce bulk and not carry around too many writing devices.
    I would need multipens that house 5 & 4, that have longer lasting ink cartridges.

  • @angelinayribe
    @angelinayribe Před 5 lety

    I'm not really into twist pens. Mostly because I have to switch colors quickly while writing for work. So I perfer the jetstream prime 3 over the prime 3+1. I also never need a pencil so it's pretty much useless for me. I also really like the Dr. Grip pen but I use uni style fit our jet stream refills. The coleto ink tins out too quickly for me and same for the energel.

    Any thoughts on an ideal multi-pen for sketching and measuring in buildings and topographically. I work on A4 lined sheets on a clipboard and have to quickly draw sketches and details of rooms etc. I'll usually use one colour to sketch, and one to annotate . I currently use either a cheap Bic multi-pen or a cheap Zebra Quad multi-pen, both ballpoint. Most problems occur with fine detail or when trying to fit multiple measurements into a small space. I have a 0.38 Signo DX and 0.4 Pilot G-Tec-C which are great for fine lines, so an equivalent multi-colour multi-pen is what I'm after that works in rain and dust, drys quickly and is cheap (cos they tend to get lost a lot). Haha maybe asking for too much?

    The BEST Multipen I have found (I have a similar collection to yours) is the Monteverde QUADRO. I didn't see it in your video... but it has 3+1 inserts, but it's not bulky at all. It's basically the same size or slimmer as an Pentel RSVP or a Sakura Micron.
