So, first look at the pins did not look like the originals. You have a red base and at the top they are blue. Then so much water is running out, that we have to put our Aqua Doodle Travel on the heater to dry (one night is not enough!). If you put the pen in the holder provided is half the painting surface wet until you arrive somewhere. Too bad, especially since I had of course bought equal to 2 packs. But here again counts the proverb: "He who buys cheap buys twice!"
