What is the difference between a reusable and a single-use pen device?

A single-use pen device is designed to be thrown away once it has been used, and many are made from plastic. A reusable pen device is designed to be kept, with only the cartridge replaced. The V3 pen has an anodised aluminium body and cap, with a plastic clip and dial knob.

Is a reusable pen device better value over time?

It can be, depending on what you compare it with. A reusable pen body is a one-off purchase, and after that you replace only the cartridges, which are sold separately (a 10-pack of 3mL cartridges is £12 at V3 Pens UK). A single-use device has to be replaced as a whole each time, so it is worth adding up the running cost of each option before you buy.

Does a reusable pen device create less waste?

A reusable pen body is kept and reloaded, so fewer whole devices are thrown away. Cartridges are still replaced as they are used, so the saving is in the pen body, not the cartridges.

Are reusable pen devices compatible with standard cartridges?

The V3 pen is designed to take standard 3mL refill cartridges. Compatibility varies between pen designs and manufacturers, so check the listing of any pen you are considering.
