Hello everyone,

I recently purchased a flux pen for my PCB work. However, upon trying to use it, I found that no flux comes out of the pen when I attempt to apply it to a PCB. I've attached a video demonstration for clarity.

I uploaded the evidence in youtube:

Has anyone else faced a similar issue? If so, how did you resolve it, or did you have to return the product? Any advice or input would be appreciated.

Thanks!

When you PUSH DOWN on the pen, the nib retracts and opens the flux reservoir wetting the tip. Without "priming" the tip it will always be dry!
