Disposable pens aren't the future...

That's why I designed the Lumos - Refillable Writing Pen. This pen is built to last and provide as much utility as possible. Here are some of its features:

  • Infinitely refillable: The Lumos writing pen has a reservoir that can be easily refilled just by dipping it in ink. It works by capillary action, which feeds the pen tip and keeps the ink flowing beautifully.

  • Any ink colour: You're no longer limited to just blue and black. You can refill your pen with any fountain ink colour, including waterproof pigment ink.

  • Smooth tips: The Lumos writing pen comes with an incredible Japanese-made 0.3 writing tip that provides just the right level of feedback on paper. You can write at any angle, and the tip is incredibly durable, so no matter how hard you press on the paper, it will take it. When the tip does eventually wear out, all that needs replacing is this tiny tip. A 0.5 tip is also available if you like a thicker line.

  • Endlessly interchangeable: The Lumos Refillable writing pen doesn't limit you to just one tip type. You can easily swap between another 9 different tip styles, including fineliners (0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5, 0.8, 1.0) and felt-tips (2mm chisel, bullet, and brush). You can find the full creative tip set here.

GOOD TO KNOW:

  • The finish is a super grippy and durable matt black anodised finish.

  • The Lumos - Refillable Writing Pen comes with a 0.3 writing tip. You can buy replacement writing or other tips here in packs of 3 here: Lumos tips. 

  • The pen comes with a reusable cotton core reservoir for each nib, spares available here: Lumos reservoirs. The longer version works in this pen.

  • The Lumos Write weighs 20g and is 10mm in diameter.

  • The pen includes a Tom's Studio - Deep Black Ink (not waterproof) 5ml bottle of ink. More colours are available here: Fountain pen ink as well as waterproof pigment inks . Calligraphy Inks are not compatible (find out more in FAQs below).

    Full FAQs can be found here

    What ink can I use?

    - All nibs will work with all but the most experimental fountain pen inks (think shimmer + iridescent). I've tried a LOT and I'm yet to find one that doesn't work well. I'd encourage you to experiment and find the inks that work best for you!

    Pigment Ink for fountain pens can be found here.

    Calligraphy Ink has an acrylic binder which will block the Pen

    What are the differences between the Duo and the Single Lumos?

    The Duo Lumos allows you to have two different pens in one body, allowing you to easily change between nibs and ink colours on either side.

    The Single Lumos has one tip and one ink reservoir which is double the Duo's reservoir size.

    What's the difference between the Lumos and other refillable technical pens? (E.g. Rotring Isograph and Copic Multiliner).

    Tip, Top, Tips

    Japan is where the best technical pens are made.  I was never going to be able to design anything that came close to the precision and decades of perfectionism of a Japanese-made nib.  So I designed the Lumos around them, with 9 sizes and types you are sure to find the ones to perfectly suit your style. 

    Reduce, Reuse, Refill

    It's always seemed crazy to me to have to dispose of an otherwise amazing pen, just because it has run out of ink!  With it's interchangeable ink reservoir the Lumos allows you to easily refill with your ink colour of choice.  You'll also never have to buy another pen again! No more refills, No more waste

    I am fan!

    The texture of the product, the precision with which the cap screws and unscrews as well as the sensation of the tip on the paper make me appreciate the Tom's experience. I am very happy with my purchase!

    In Love with Lumos

    I bought the Lumos Pro and (because I instantly loved it so much) later also the Lumos Write to have one pen at home and one at work. Even though the price is rather high, I love that I stop producing so much plastic rubbish simply by writing.

    The only thing I would love for the Lumos Write to be enhanced is the little grippy part into wich the nib is placed. With the Lumos Pro it’s made of metal, the Lumos Write comes with this part made of plastic.

    Everything else is deluxe, I love it! ❤️

    Tactile and smooth

    This is great. If aesthetics and minimalism appeal to you then the design of this is great. It feels just the correct size and texture in your hand when writing. The variety of nib sizes permit flexibility, but whatever you choose it is buttery smooth on the page and the ink doesn’t blot or run.

    Love this pen

    I’m a fountain pen fan, but liked the idea of using my inks in a different way. The Lumos has become my favorite everyday pen. It’s smooth but gives some feedback on the page. It’s slim but comfortable. The materials feel luxe, and the tip writes well and, usually, consistently. I took it on a plane and was happy it didn’t explore in the air. I’m very happy with this purchase and am considering the one with two tips so I can have different color inks in one pen...

    Truly fantastic!

    This pen is fantastic to write with. The quality and balance is excellent. On top of that, the ability to easily refil the ink with little to no waste is excellent.
