Elecom has released an active stylus for the iPad that reaches a full charge in about 20 minutes thanks to its fast-charging feature, shipping in late June 2026[1]. With a slim 1.6mm tip, tilt detection, and palm rejection, the company says it delivers a writing feel close to the genuine Apple Pencil. It comes in two colors, white and gray, both at an open price[1]. The product's main selling point is convenience: you can top it up in a short break rather than waiting out a dead battery.

A fast charge that finishes in about 20 minutes

The standout feature is fast charging that fills the battery in roughly 20 minutes[1]. Even if the pen runs out, a brief charge gets it working again, so you can power up in the small gaps between tasks or right before heading out. Charging is done over a USB Type-C cable, and a full charge provides about 12 hours of continuous use[1].

A four-stage LED lamp on the body shows the remaining charge, and an auto-off function cuts the power after 5 minutes of inactivity[1]. No pairing is required; you simply switch it on and start writing, a design clearly aimed at everyday use. Note that while a USB Type-C cable is included, an AC adapter is not, so you will need to supply a USB output adapter rated at 5V/1A or higher separately[1]. The pen can also be powered from the iPad itself[1].

A 1.6mm tip aimed at an Apple Pencil-like feel

The pen uses a slim tip of about 1.6mm, making it easier to write fine notes and draw illustrations[1]. The tip is made of polyacetal resin (POM), a material with good conductivity that Elecom says balances a smooth writing feel with a low risk of scratching the screen[1].

Features tied to the writing experience are also well covered. It supports tilt detection that varies line thickness according to the angle of the pen, and it carries a palm rejection function that prevents misfires even when your hand rests on the screen[1]. That makes it easier to handle in situations like handwriting or sketching, where you want to keep your hand on the display.

Magnetic attachment and spare tips for long-term use

A magnetic surface on the side of the pen lets it attach to the side of an iPad for carrying, helping prevent loss[1]. The magnetic surface is flat so the pen is less likely to roll on a desk or floor. Elecom notes, however, that depending on the case you use, the iPad's magnetic area may be hidden and the pen may not attach[1].

For longevity, two spare tips are included[1]. These tips are interchangeable with genuine Apple Pencil tips (1st generation, 2nd generation, USB-C, and Apple Pencil Pro) as well as Elecom's own P-TIPAP series, so you can choose the writing feel you prefer[1]. The product is a "THINK ECOLOGY" certified item that meets at least one of Elecom's in-house environmental standards, and it uses outer packaging designed to improve shipping efficiency[1][2].

Summary

Elecom's new active stylus for the iPad offers about a 20-minute fast charge, roughly 12 hours of continuous use, a 1.6mm fine tip, tilt detection, and palm rejection. The model numbers are P-TPACSTAP13WH for white and P-TPACSTAP13GY for gray, both at an open price. For anyone looking for an alternative when the genuine Apple Pencil feels out of reach, the quick charging and long-term usability offered by replaceable tips look like strong reasons to choose it.
