Levenger L-Tech

Can anybody help with my question?

According to the Levenger web page the L-Tech 3.0 comes with a converter so you can use any bottled ink you like. It seems the L-Tech uses the international short cartridges so the Sailor cartridges should not work.

For all those that are interested in this pen: I was just searching the Levenger site and found that the L-Tech 3.0 is in the Outlet with 29% off, but only in two colors. If you buy before may 2 you can use the promo code OUTLET4 to get an additional 20% off.

I'm getting one of these from mass drop. My question: what sort of cartridge does this take? Would this work?

 

Sailor Sailor Cartridges - Black (set of 12) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001GR4BJM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_Pynjxb372H7CA

 

And for ink experts, is this the same black that comes in the bottle that everyone raves about? Is the Jentle line different?

The Sailor cartridges will not work but any international cartridges will like Diamine, Pelikan, Diplomat, Visconti, etc. as well as Levenger's own and they have some pretty nice inks.

Sailor cartridges are only for Sailor pens.

 

Since the reviewer called it a standard c/c system I assume they mean it takes standard international cartridges.

 

Edit: sorry for redundant answering.

I have the 2.0 and have decided that the pen, while substantial, is heavier when posted than I tend to like. I'm going to be using it as a tablet stylus and then I don't need to worry about ink drying out if I misplace the cap.

 

I like Sailor Jentle ink but Sailor cartridges are a proprietary size that I use in my Sailor. The L-Tech should take standard cartridges, so if you wanted Sailor ink you could use the bottled version with the converter that came with the pen.

Thanks for mentioning the ability to swap nibs with truwriter. I've had my L-tech for several years and like it, but my writing really struggles with the medium. Swapped it with a fine, and like it much better. Not sure why I never thought if it, but glad you did. Thanks again.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
