Unboxing Uni Lead holder and Staedtler Mars Carbon 12 pack ASMR | Mitsubishi MH 500 | 2.0mm 4B & 2H

First time doing a little doddle immediately after the unboxing, the hood on that FRS/BRZ/GT86 was a little elongated but well, close enough eh?

Can be exchanged? I can't afford now the staedtler lead but l found special price for the Uni 2.0mm leads, Can l use them in my staedtler 2.0mm lead holder??

I just went and tried it. The Uni lead come with a plastic end piece you will have to break off before inserting into the Staedtler lead holder. The end piece is tiny, you'll be left with a pretty much full sized lead. Once end piece is gone you will be left with a standard 2mm lead which should work with every lead holder. In short yes, but you'll have to break off the very tail end of the Uni lead. Let me know if this makes sense, best of lucks!

The Staedtler lead is a 12 pack, that's why it's a bit pricier than other brands. A 12 pack of lead should last quite a long time.

which of both lead holder do you prefer and why?

I personally prefer the Staedtler Mars Carbon for its knurling, longer length and balance but it’s real close between the two, the Uni is good in its own way. Hope this helps
