It works fine, wish it was larger

I picked this up for my daughter to use with her Kaweco Sport AL. She wants to start trying different bottled inks. This thing is really small. It seems to work fine, we just wish it was a little larger. I'm also going to try to clean out and refill some empty ink cartridges using a syringe.

Tiny but powerful

Just the right size to fit.

Surprised how well this works

I was not expecting this small converter to do so well in my broad nib Sport, I can barely keep up! For times you may want to change inks more frequently than an eyedropper fill, it's great for that too. Just nice to have.

Works as intended, but is VERY small. It’s nice to have the option of using a different ink however, even if in small amounts.

FAQs about Converters
