Today we are checking out the wildly popular Tom's Studio LUMOS pen. A beautiful & infinitely refillable fineliner, writing & brush pen.
Tom Gyr is a product designer and craftsman who loves using a variety of pens to create illustrations and designs. Having designed calligraphy and fountain pens for creative folks across the world full-time for over 6 years, he decided it was time to apply his knowledge to the pen he used most of all and one of the biggest culprits when it came to its disposable nature: the fineliner. And the LUMOS was born.
In the package you get The Lumos pen, a full set of 11 Japanese-made tips, a reusable cotton core reservoir, and a sample bottle of Tom's Studio - Deep Black Ink (not waterproof).

Can't recommend syringes enough. I use them for fountain pen refills AND cleaning. You can fill them with clean water, dip the syringe deep into the reservoir and inject water at the bottom, slowly. It pushes up and out the excess ink gently and in an orderly manner, without gushes and splashes all over the place.

@markyourpages Ай бұрын

OK, this is an AMAZING tip! Thank you so much. I will have to try it out.

@SevenArt-en6ss Ай бұрын

alot of people don't know that you can do this with almost every single fine liner out there. I've been refilling my Micron and uni pins with different inks and colors for years.

Someone mentioned a clip for the pens which I think would be great. Something to stop the rolling that doesn’t need a separate holder. Even though it is really nice looking.

@pilesofthings Ай бұрын

Ahhh I wish I got the new nib holder! Mine is just that first one he had with the slits in the paper and I managed to somehow loose two tips 😅 I like the sleek look without a clip but maybe they can do a kaweco style clip for people who might want one? I had a pen loop on a leather journal cover that would just dig into my journal so I carefully removed it and put it on my lumos as a roll stop 😊

I've been so tempted to get the Duo, so this review is really useful! I thought it would be a good replacement for the single use fineliners I use for my journal layouts, and now I'm convinced. 😁

Thanks for this very comprehensive video, very appealing and thorough in all aspects about the pen as well as adressing the fears about cleaning it out etc. I have just ordered mine, going straight for the duo, I could not find the extra reservoirs on the website, sadly, Wanted to have some so I can try out shimmer inks as well (not with the fine tip though), but without some backup revervoirs that is too risky. Don't want to ruin a new pen straight from the get-go. I'm looking forward to your next videos :)

@sloanjulia17 Ай бұрын

I just ordered the duo and came across your video looking for reviews so perfect timing for me! I love fountain pen ink because I use a Hobonichi, but I'm too nervous about leaks to carry my fountain pens with me on a daily basis so I thought this would be the perfect solution. I figure one of the writing nibs will be my everyday writer with black, and then I'll use a fun color on a weekly or monthly basis on the other side! It looks fantastic and my biggest concern was the same as yours, cleaning them out, but it's great to know that they're easy to clean (and I bought some extra reservoirs off the bat because lord knows I'll find a way to mess it up 😂)

@markyourpages Ай бұрын

I am feeling the same way - finding a good nib for a daily use and then have some fun with the other side. It’s kid of how I am using it now - a fun yellow and the blue on the other side. It’s feeling good.

Have been wondering about this for a while, love the idea of the duo! Did you ever test it with any shimmer ink as I have several by Ferris Wheel and if they worked? If so this would probably seal the deal into getting one!

@sashikoff 17 күн бұрын

I have Lumos duo black. Overall I like it. Brush nib isn't very flexible, but I guess it's a personal preference. What I absolutely hate is how tiny threads are. I am constantly nervous to mess up the thread when cupping the pen. Also a tip: do not overtight cotton reservoir holder (part of the nib holder construction) as it will be almost impossible to unscrew it from the pen. I had to use an elastic band to unscrew it as the silicon cup that comes with the pen doesn't have enough grip.

I've been looking at this pen for a while, I'm not typically a fan of felt tip (my go to is a 0.28 gel pen) but ugh, it's SO COOL! something that wasn't clear from the video, will the metal cap fit over the brush pen on the duo, or does the silicone cover have to be used?

@dorianadesanto4158 Ай бұрын

I have the do. All the different tips fit in the metal cap. The silicon cover an be used for grabbing the metal cap and nibs.

@markyourpages Ай бұрын

So I was really hesitant to use the cap over the brush pen. To me it doesn’t look like it’s going to fit, so I went with the safe option. It would def fit inside the other side of the pen though if you set it up on that side.

@GaryScott-pdx Ай бұрын

All the nibs fit under the metal cap though I could see using the silicon cap on the Duo if you needed to use both ends frequently, like for a teacher that grades papers in red but wants to write notes to the student in blue ink.

@gunsmokeandghouls Ай бұрын

How durable are these tips? Compared to say copic, microns etc? And how securely does that silicon cap fit? Or is the tip going to dry out with it on if not used for a week?

@markyourpages Ай бұрын

I’ve only had it about a week - so I’ll have to do a follow up

@EPeltzer 12 күн бұрын

This is not at all the way fountain pens work. They have no absorbent sponge style ink "reservoir". Also fountain pens are the OG refillable pen with interchangeable nibs, and I much prefer writing and sketching with fountain pens. And yes as others mention, if you prefer fine-liner style pens like micron, well microns are in fact refillable. Also, there have been refillable brush pens for ages as well, I have a number of them from Kuretake, Pentel, etc. Don't misunderstand, this looks like a functional and well made pen, but it's quite expensive and not by any means a groundbreaking idea. BTW fountain pen users know that a touch of ammonia in a water soak helps clean out the ink.

@markyourpages 12 күн бұрын

I don't think I misused the definition here. Capillary action is when liquids can flow in a narrow space, even against gravity, so it's what allows ink to flow from the reservoir to the nib in a fountain pen. It's the same action that is happening here - ink flowing up, against gravity, to feed the nibs. The material is different - but the action is the same. That is a great tip on the ammonia in the water - that isn't something I have heard before. I'll have to give it a look and try. Thanks for your feedback and ideas on other options for pen users.

@NickUncommon Ай бұрын

That silicone tip grip is probably to help gripping on to the tip to screw it in, and it serving as a cover is an additional goodie ;)

It’s definitely there to help with that, but can also double as the cap - multi use

There is a big problem with these pens. They are like rabbits. I bought one a while ago and it multiplies so I now have three and am looking to buy another this year. Obviously, I give them my seal of approval. I use mine more frequently than I use my fountain pens. I don’t care for shimmer inks so that’s not a problem for me. I will say that if you like sheening inks these are not the best pen as one of the requirements for a good sheen is a wet ink. The fiber tips while great for writing don’t lay down a real wet line. You will still get some sheening but not the amount you get from a fountain pen. I also purchased a handful of reservoirs so that when I want to change the ink I don’t have to wash the reservoir to change ink. I do clean and reuse them just not immediately. Tom’s didn’t have the vials to store the reservoir in when I bought my extras. I’ll have to order a few when I purchase my next pen. I would recommend buying a handful of your favorite nibs as they do wear out if you write/draw on rough paper. If you’re not heavy handed even the smallest nibs will write for a long time on smooth paper. But this isn’t a problem unique to the Lumos. I’ve ruined the nib on more than one fine liner drawing on rough watercolor paper. If you have any questions you can contact me on instagram at garylscott.

The pen is made from anodized aluminum so the only plastic is the reservoir encapsulation. So there is significantly less plastic in the Lumos than even a moderately expensive pen.

I like using mine when I’m away from home as I’d rather lose a $100 pen than potentially a $1,000 pen.

I am sure I could have run that water lower and gotten the same effect. Usually, if you are keeping that same color, you would just refill without cleaning it. Or use a different color.
