What is the Uniball 207 Plus+?

[@tompov227]

The "nano fiber" ink in the 307 has always been my absolute favorite. So rich, so dark, so smooth and surprisingly fast drying. I use the Signo DX a lot b/c I like the small size and color options but really all the uniball Signo pens are so good!!

[@inkdependence]

Yep. I'm a big fan of the Signo, myself. And these 207 Plus pens seem really good.

[@Emily-lh6em]

I know it's been a year but could I ask you about the signo dx? I like using highlighter and I was wondering if you know wether it smears when highlighted? 😅

[@JH-pe3ro]

I've had a 207 Plus+ 3-color set for a while, but went back and reviewed them again for drawing this evening after getting additional time and experience using a lot of other things over the past year. They hold up really well - they don't skip much, and aren't as slippery as the original Signo 207, Jetstreams or many rollerballs. The 207 Plus+ also doesn't have much feathering, which is definitely a thing about the rollerballs that holds them back on many papers. Just a nice, juicy, slightly grungy line that sculpts well, and one of the most balanced options among the "office pens" I have. The fineliners and brush pens can get a more precise line of course, but this is one I might start reaching for to bring in character.

[@inkdependence]

Interesting! I don't draw, but this is good info to know. I really like the 207+ pens, and the refills get transferred to some fancier bodies sometimes.

[@FrankZen]

I love these. I bought them for my checkbook and now also use it in my EDC notebook.

[@SevereTstormFan]

What notebook do you use?

[@ShouvickChatterjee-fd6mz]

Are you ECE ENGINEER

[@FrankZen]

@@ShouvickChatterjee-fd6mz No what's that?

[@michelleadams5609]

I bought the color pack last night. Gorgeous ink delivery. I have every color of the um 151, and while I'm a big fan I was interested in this pen. Highly recommend.

[@Emily-lh6em]

I've recently been into collecting pens because i picked up writing/journaling again. Once you notice all pens are not the same, you start wanting to find out which ones are the best for each situation. I was using zebra pens a lot but i got some Uniball pens recently and they've been pretty great. I mostly love fine points (0.7 and lower) and I'm looking for pens that won't smear when highlighted. 😊

[@inkdependence]

Just wait until you get into highlighters! My go-to for non-smearing are the Staedtler Textsurfer and (recently) some Monami highlighters.

[@Squddle]

Will the 207 plus be able to withstand check washing like the 207?

[@inkdependence]

I bet it would, but they don't seem to talk about that on their website any longer so I'll have to wait to check the packaging until I go to the store next.

[@lindamastropietro4429]

There is a video about your

[@MattWatsonHarmonica]

Thank you! I had a real hard time trying to figure out if I wanted the 207 or 207 PLUS+. Your writing examples were excellent. The plus it is! $4.50 for a 4 pack!

[@ecksdog]

The 307’s improvement over the 207 is the ability to write on shiny smooth paper that usually gives gel pens difficulty.

[@robingordon5821]

Great reading as usual. Got an idea for new merch. How about a shirt/cup that says "The cards are listening" with a 3 card spread under it that says something like "You are loved" or "The universe always wins". Or something like it. Then when people ask what it means I get to tell them about you. Keep up the awesome readings. Love from Colorado

[@Sparks68]

Is the 207+ impervious to check washing? That's the MOST IMPORTANT aspect of using a pen now.

[@inkdependence]

I don’t know about “impervious,” but it is an ink that is designed to resist that. From the Uniball site: “uni Super Ink Plus+ entraps the gel ink in the paper, creating a strong bond that resists document fraud for greater security”

[@curtw8827]

Just got the 207+ for the couple of checks I write. Had one client that required everything be signed in blue.

[@inkdependence]

I hardly ever write checks anymore, but these are supposed to be good for that. They’re also good for addresses on letters and the like.

[@mf6532]

The 15/01 and 22/01 on the refills denote production date.

[@inkdependence]

That was my suspicion.

[@Crazytesseract]

Can I subscribe? 15-01 and 22-01 are date codes. 15-01 means year 2015 month 1 (Jan), and 22-01 means 2022 Jan. UMR-87 is normal Signo ink. UMR-87E is "nanofiber" ink.

[@basspig]

Another video I just watched so these are the only pins in the world that are basically immune to check washing fraud. Once you write on a check with this Hank there's no way to wash it off.

[@maridaudran]

Frank Abagnale recommends the 207, and he should know.

[@davidpowell3347]

The main thing is to get the proper one to write a check.

[@inkdependence]

Right. I don't write very many checks these days, but I do try and do it in an ink that can't be destroyed very easily.

[@ronlevine8873]

Does the 207 Plus+ have the same anti-fraud properties as the 207?

[@inkdependence]

That’s a good question. Their website doesn’t mention them for either pen. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@RosebudBB]

@@inkdependence Why didn't you do that test while making this video? I watched while waiting for the test that never came!

[@DennisMathias]

Will it write upside down?

[@inkdependence]

It's not pressurized as far as I know, so probably not as well or for as long as some of those pressurized pens.

[@FrankZen]

Plus+ line is more solid IMHO

[@deykno87]

Need a .38!!!

[@inkdependence]

That might work for a gel, but .38 is usually fine a point for me.

[@jlinms8721]

There is a 307 .38. Has a white pen body. Great pen.

[@FrankZen]

I read that 307 is exactly the same as 207+ on Reddit but the writing in this video is obviously different.

[@inkdependence]

Yeah, it's definitely not the same ink. Very different characteristics and performance.

[@brandonlingstuyl9897]

Do a video review of tru red gel pens in blue medium point they write better and darker than Uniball signo 207 pens

[@ebodaman]

These are great pens!

[@inkdependence]

I think so, too!

[@patriciosantibanez5458]

The idea is that this brand of pen is anti fraud. this video does not mention this. Are they anti fraud???

[@inkdependence]

Yep. They are. I don’t think they had the info on their website when I made this video. They were fresh on the market at the time.

[@jk97]

the 207+ uses the same ink refill as the 307 for what it's worth

[@inkdependence]

Do you have a source for that info? They both say "UMR-87E" on the refill, but the rest of the numbers are different. And the ad copy doesn't mention "nano-fibers" for the 207+. And they do seem to perform differently. It's always a little difficult to find information on specific inks in standard pens, and so I'd love to get more information.

[@jlinms8721]

The source is that the refills are named the same.

[@HumbleCowboy92]

You could be a doctor haha

[@HumbleCowboy92]

Excellent review!

[@endezeichengrimm]

Is the Signo 307 still in production? I loved those.

[@inkdependence]

Yep. It seems like they are. I thought they were replaced by the 207+, but apparently not!

[@alexhenderson8356]

Too much BS. Stick to the basics and make the video shorter. We want essential info, not how happy you are with the pen in your hand
