What is the difference between the Rocketbook Wave and the Rocketbook Everlast
The Rocketbook Wave is available on GetRocketbook.com. Rocketbook Everlast is available on this Kickstarter campaign.
The Rocketbook Wave can is not endlessly reusable (reusing 5-20 times is realistic). The Rocketbook Everlast is endlessly reusable (reusing over 1000 times is realistic).
Both the Rocketbook Wave and Rocketbook Everlast work with Pilot FriXion pens.
The Rocketbook Wave can be reused by heating in your microwave oven. The Rocketbook Everlast can be reused by wiping the page clean with a moist towel. Don’t put the Everlast in the microwave.
The binding and the cover of the Everlast are more durable since it’s design isn’t constrained to microwavable materials.
The Rocketbook Wave pages are a cellulose formulation. The Rocketbook Everlast pages are made of a waterproof synthetic poly blend.

Can I heat the Everlast notebook to erase it?
Erase your Everlast by applying moisture and wiping it off.
The Rocketbook Wave (available at GetRocketbook.com) is designed to be microwave safe, so you can erase the whole notebook with heat in the microwave (or use a strong hairdryer, page by page)
When you reuse the Rocketbook Wave, slight residue from clear ink remains on the page, so it’s not endlessly reusable like the Everlast is. We customers who tell us that they use the Rocketbook Wave over 20 times but we say it’s good for 5 uses to set expectations modest.
The Rocketbook Everlast is really an endlessly reusable Rocketbook.

What if I leave ink on the page for a long time?
We tested ink on left on the page for 3 months, 2 months, 1 month, 3 weeks, 2 weeks, 1 week. When ink was left on the page for 2 months or more, the writing left behind a very subtle ghosting. You really have to be in good light and look very closely to notice it. It doesn’t interfere with writing over it, future reusability, or scanning.
After ink is left on the page for 1 month or less, erasing was perfect and the page was pristine.

Will moisture degrade the pages?
The Everlast pages are a sythnetic poly blend that are impervious to water.

Will my notes wipe off easily?
Dry ink cures great to the page and won’t wipe off the page. Introduce some water (a moist towel is recommended), and it will wipe off easily and perfectly.

Where can I find replacement Pilot FriXion pens?
Your Rocketbook Everlast comes with one FriXion pen and we offer add-ons of 3 packs for convenience. But you don’t need to buy replacements from us. FriXion pens are made by Pilot and are available in many stores, like Staples, Walmart, Target, and Amazon.com (http://amzn.to/2eNPYCs)

I'm left handed, anything I should know?
If your hand tends to drag across your words as you write, then the Everlast is not for you. When writing with FriXion gel inks on the Everlast, it takes 10+ seconds for the ink to dry and be resistant to smudging.
Also, if you don’t like the coil on the left side of your book, then the Everlast might not be a good fit (yet). In the future we may provide steno-style books that are bound at the top, but at this time we haven’t committed to doing so.

Do Frixion pens erase (with their eraser) on the Everlast?
Absolutely. You can use the eraser on the Frixion pen to erase writing as you go.

What is BackerKit?
BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!
The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.
How does BackerKit work?
After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.
I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?
The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.
Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.
To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.
How do I update my shipping address?
BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.
When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?
That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.
I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?
As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
