When filling with the button fill converter, do I wait between depressions? The instruction says to push 3 times but I wasn't sure if I am supposed to wait a few seconds between pumps to allow the sac to fill?
Thank you!

It certainly cannot hurt, just to let the ink settle down a little bit and let any bubbles dissipate.

I have an old one of these that I use sometimes, I usually wait for a count of 5 between depresions and keep pressing until I get no more bubbles.

I would say "yes" simply because a button filler is merely a sac-filling mechanism. The wait is meant to allow the sac to expand back to its original shape.

Thank you. The converter fills very well; no bubbles after 3 depressions. I actually like this filling mechanism. It's too bad that I read they are not as common since they don't last that long.
