Introduction

The ZMOL 029 Electric Pencil Sharpener is a useful tool that can be used to sharpen both color and graphite pencils. This small but powerful sharpener was made to be convenient.

These can be used for a range of tasks, from fine writing to drawing without lines. Its safety features, like the auto-stop function and child-safe lock, give you peace of mind while you use it.

Features

  • Dual Power Source:
    The ZMOL 029 Electric Pencil Sharpener offers multiple power options, making it highly versatile. It can be powered by 4 AA batteries (not included, requires LR6 alkaline batteries) for on-the-go use or through the included USB cable (plug not included, requires a 5V2A output voltage). This dual power source feature allows for convenient use in various settings, whether you’re in the classroom, at home, or in the office.

  • Auto-Stop Function:
    This sharpener is equipped with an auto-stop function that ensures the pencil is not over-sharpened. Once the pencil reaches its optimal sharpness, the sharpener automatically stops, preventing unnecessary wear on the pencil and extending its lifespan. This feature is particularly useful for preserving the integrity of colored pencils and softer leads, which are more prone to breaking.

  • Compact Design:
    The ZMOL 029 is designed with portability in mind. It is small enough to fit in a bag or backpack, comparable to the size of a coffee cup, making it easy to carry around. Despite its compact size, it features a large shavings box that can hold more pencil shavings than other sharpeners of similar size. The design ensures that the sharpener and its lid are securely attached, so you don’t have to worry about the sharpener or the shavings falling out during use or transport.

  • Easy to Clean:
    Maintaining the ZMOL 029 is simple and hassle-free. The shavings container is transparent, allowing you to easily see when it needs to be emptied. It is also removable, enabling quick disposal of the shavings without creating a mess. Regular cleaning ensures the sharpener remains in optimal working condition.

  • Safe for Kids:
    Safety is a priority with the ZMOL 029, especially for young users. The sharpener includes a safety lock feature that prevents operation when the shavings cover is removed. This ensures that children can use the sharpener safely without the risk of injury.

  • Tungsten Steel Knife Holder:
    The ZMOL 029 has been upgraded with a tungsten steel knife holder, making it more durable and higher in quality than standard sharpeners with ordinary knife holders. This material ensures long-lasting sharpness and reliability, even with frequent use.

  • 3 Sharpening Modes Available:
    This pencil sharpener offers three sharpening modes—sharp, medium, and blunt—to accommodate different writing and drawing needs. The sharp mode is ideal for writing, providing a precise and fine point. The medium mode is suitable for daily writing tasks, while the blunt mode is perfect for coloring and sketching. The sharpener is compatible with standard 6-8 mm pencils, including No. 2 graphite pencils and colored pencils from popular brands like Prismacolor, Derwent, and Faber-Castell. However, it is not recommended for use with soft pencils or crayons, as they may cause clogging or lead breakage.

  • Fast Sharpening, No Waste:
    The ZMOL 029 features sharper blades and a more powerful motor, allowing you to achieve the perfect nib in just 3-5 seconds. The sharpener automatically stops sharpening once the desired sharpness is reached, preventing pencil waste. This efficient process ensures that your pencils are sharpened quickly and accurately without over-sharpening.

  • Low Noise Operation:
    Designed with a low-noise motor, the ZMOL 029 operates quietly, making it suitable for use in environments where noise might be a concern, such as classrooms or libraries.

  • USB and Battery Powered:
    In addition to battery power, the ZMOL 029 can also be powered via USB, providing further convenience. You can plug it into a power bank, a USB adapter, or even a laptop for immediate use, ensuring that you’re never without a working pencil sharpener.
