This works good for my needs. Its much sturdier then the one I had you had to squeeze. I would have liked this one a bit more if the tip was a little smaller, but it does work for me ok.

My need is for a NON-LEAKING oil container that I can put in a DRAWER in the kitchen and another oil container I can put in my car tool box. My PROBLEM is that every small oil tube or container I have ever purchased slowly LEAKE ALL OVER THE DRAWER and leaves me with a mess that is really hard to clean up. OK, so we get to the ARES 70004. I purchased one ARES 70004 and ran it through my (minor) testing process of filling with oil, making sure it would drip oil when I wanted a little oil, and then capping it up and storing vertically to encourage a leak (if it did leak). AND... NO LEAKS. Wow, I am impressed. I am encouraged enough to finally purchase a total of three (3) of these devices and, so far, NO LEAKS from any of the three. Bottom line is: if you have the same oil-all-over-everything problem I had you might want to look close at the ARES 70004 as a solution. Heck, try one out anyway, they won't break the bank and I think you will be pleased.

This works as advertised. However there are a couple of drawbacks. The way this pen works is that when you push the top, a metal rod moves out from the "writing" end of the pen. When that happens the oil stored in the reservoir drops out due to gravity. All well and good until you want to oil some spot where the writing end is higher than the "clicker" end. Then oil is not going to come out because gravity is working against you. Contrary to what you may think this is not a syringe and does not push out oil. As long as the clicker end is above the end where the oil comes out from, you are okay and works as advertised. This was not clear to me when I bought it, hence I deducted one star. Otherwise it works as advertised and seems well made.Next problem with this type of device is if you have to put a lot of oil out. Then you have to click a lot and it gets tiring on the hands. A syringe would be the best way to go. This is in no way the device's fault - just the wrong tool for the job.Deducted one star

For those the wish to have control over how much oil is applied, this tool do the job nicely. It will supply a wee bit or a nice knob to bit larger thread or bigger surfaces. I use mine to apply Ballistol and works very well for small screws and sliding parts that you don’t want to over oil.

After looking at different precision oilers available I chose the Ares as it appeared well made, durable and designed to do what it was intended to do. It arrived quickly, and I immediately filled it with Break Free CLP. After cleaning and lubing several items I screwed the cap on and laid it on my laptop (closed). The following morning I woke to find a little puddle of the CLP on my laptop. The oiler leaked from the top at the plunger button. No damage was done, but I wasn't happy. It seems I wasn't the only user to have this problem, but here is where all the good stuff starts.A few days later I received an email from ARES Tool asking if I was happy with my purchase stating "We are committed to doing whatever it takes to ensure you are 100% satisfied." Huh. There's something I rarely see, so I responded and told them of my problem. After going back and forth with several emails and information about exactly the type of CLP I was using I received a response on a Saturday morning! So OK. Now I'm impressed.Within the week I had a replacement. Once again I filled it with my favorite CLP, used it a bit and laid it on a napkin on its side. Next morning, no leak. Well I needed to leave to take care of some business and laid the oiler in the back seat of my truck, as I saw a need for it while away. After almost 4000 miles this thing was as dry as the day I got it, and I couldn't be more pleased.In this day of shady quality and a not caring about the customer I found ARES Tool to be just the opposite. Sure, a few dogs might get loose once in a while but they stand behind their product and resolve problems thoroughly and quickly.I'll probably never need another oiler, as this one should last more years than me but I will say that if you need one, this is it. It works as designed and comes with a limited lifetime warranty that they actually honor. What more could you want?
