Do you know when it was sold?

Added. Thank you

deli is a Chinese company that makes a lot of stationery products. They have a couple autos. The SH102 model is a recent release (I think 2024) that is pretty stellar for $0.50 USD. Build quality is similar to Pilot Eno color MPs, but the grip ergonomics are sculpted on the deli - a bit triangular - and I like it better than the ambiguous bulbs on the Pilots.

The other deli automatic is Autmagic. Deli-EU775 Mechanical Pencil - Deli Group Co., Ltd.

Thanks. I added them

Does anyone here have any experience with the Berol Continuum??

I’ve been eyeing it for a while now, but for some reason haven’t pulled the trigger just yet. It’s sexy as hell (regardless of it’s automatic feature).

Having never seen anyone display/mention theirs here is most likely the source of my trepidation.

Any insight/experience is greatly appreciated.

Here is another auto from Pilot: 80 オートマチックえんぴつ (tr. Automatic Pencil).

Perhaps their cheapest of all. It has an eraser under the cap.

[Pdunc67]

Thanks! it’s in there

100 Years of Pilot book

I did not know there was an eraser! I’ll need to dig mine out of storage this weekend

The luna is not

[Heath]

I think there are two versions of the Luna - one automatic and the other normal:

[Neroaddict]

ahh I see, I was referring solely to the second, judging by the sleeve of the first, I suspect that it is automatic

[Pdunc67]

which one do I need to add to the list above? and do you know when this was sold?

[Heath]

I would just call it the Luna Automatic and not sure when they were released. You can take the Penac side click off the list - unless there’s a version I’m not aware of, it’s not an automatic.

[Neroaddict]

the luna 7611 no idea about production timeline

[Pdunc67]

@Neroaddict

luna 7611

done! Thanks

Has anyone tried the Pilot AirStep yet? The cheapie auto sharp with a logo that reminds me of the classic SONY Walkman mascot

[Heath]

This was the first I recall hearing about them but I think it’s more of a push-matic, no?
