Aesthetic and functional
The pastel shades make my journal look beautiful. The eraser on the back is surprisingly effective and doesn't tear the paper.

Best highlighter for textbooks
Finally, a highlighter that allows me to change my mind. The line width is perfect for standard text without being too bulky.

Must-have for exam prep
Using these for my bar exam study sessions. Being able to recolor code sections as my understanding evolves is a game changer.

Smooth writing experience
The ink flows very smoothly. I deducted one star only because the eraser wears down faster than expected with heavy use.

Great concept, needs care in summer
These work wonderfully for editing notes. Just be careful not to leave them in a hot car, as the ink might fade temporarily due to the heat-sensitive formula.

Perfect for mistake-prone students!
I love that I can erase my highlighting if I mark the wrong section. The pastel colors are easy on the eyes and don't bleed through my notebook pages.
Q: Does the ink disappear completely when erased?
A: Yes, the thermo-sensitive ink becomes invisible when friction generates heat via the built-in eraser. Note that extreme cold may cause the ink to reappear.
Q: Is the chisel tip durable for daily use?
A: Yes, the fiber tip is designed for durability. However, pressing too hard can deform the tip; gentle pressure provides the best line consistency.
Q: What happens if I leave the pen in the sun?
A: Since the ink is heat-sensitive, prolonged exposure to high temperatures (like direct sunlight or a hot car) may cause the highlighted marks to fade temporarily.
Q: Are these refills available separately?
A: Currently, the SW-FL model is designed as a disposable unit, and specific refills are not sold separately in most regions.
Q: Can I use this on glossy magazine paper?
A: We recommend using these highlighters on standard porous paper. Glossy or coated surfaces may prevent the ink from drying properly or erasing cleanly.
