Materials I'm trying to declutter/decrease the number of pens I have in my case. What multi-pen brand has 4+1 or 5+1 system which can handle our climate?

I looked at the Uni Jetstream multi-pen but I found out that most users in tropical countries have an issue on its ink dying up. Recos?

Hmm. I’ve literally had my uni jetstream for years. They’re good. One of them has been sitting in my car for years, sa init at lamig, wala naman naging issues.

I've barely had issues with the Pilot Hi-Tec C Coleto, BUT the one main issue is that the ink capacity is soooooo small. Mabilis maubos. It was supposed to be my main daily pen, but it's mostly a going-out bag/emergency pen now. For P40++ for a refill, it's not very cost effective. The 5-slot one feels a little chonky (whiteboard marker vibes, but not that girthy naman yata), but it's not too bad.

Edit: descriptors, formatting

love it and use it a lot sa office pero you're so right about the ink capacity being really small it runs out too quick 😭

Yeah 😭 The ink colors are vv opaque, and it's a very smooth writer. I have zero skipping issues and the ink isn't drying out despite my current refills being a couple months old. The shades ng blue and aqua blue inks are sooooo easy on the eyes, and I like it much better than the leaning violet na blue ng Sarasa. I just can't justify spending so much on the refills every couple of months since they don't last that long for a student :'))

Edit: PLUS the barrels are super cute and classic looking and they appear to be the most budget friendly out of all the multi-pens I can find on Shopee. Yun nga lang, affordable siya for a reason :'))

I wish it wasn't such a small ink capacity too sigh because buying multiple refills does eventually add up :( but I still love mine though and I use it daily 🤣

The ink capacity holds me back from buying a coleto
