Full details

FAQs

How do I replace the ink refill?

Unscrew the barrel of the pen, pull out the old ink cartridge, and insert a new Janrax refill (black 706872 or blue 706873). Screw the barrel back on securely.

What type of ink does it use?

It uses a standard ballpoint ink. Compatible refills are Janrax black (Code: 706872) and Janrax blue (Code: 706873).

Can I attach the base to any surface?

The sticky base works best on clean, flat, and smooth surfaces. It may not adhere well to textured, dusty, or porous materials.

Is the chain removable?

The chain is permanently attached to both the pen and the base to ensure security. It is not designed to be removed.

What is the length of the chain?

The chain is approximately [Insert Chain Length Here] inches/cm long, providing enough slack for comfortable writing while keeping the pen tethered.

How do I clean the pen?

Wipe the pen and base with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Can I replace the pen if it breaks?

While the pen is designed for durability, if the pen mechanism fails, you can replace the entire unit. Refills are available for the ink, but not for the pen body itself.

Troubleshooting

Pen not writing smoothly

The ink cartridge may be low or dry. Replace the ink refill with a new Janrax refill.

Sticky base is not adhering well

Ensure the surface is clean and dry before application. If adhesion is poor after repositioning, a new sticky base might be required or consider a more permanent fixture.

Chain seems loose

Check the connection points at both the pen and the base. Ensure they are securely fastened. If the chain itself is damaged, the unit may need replacement.
