Product Description

Rite in the Rain Tactical Black Clicker Pen - Black Ink (97)
Your writing survives with Rite in the Rain products
While a pencil works great on our all-weather Rite in the Rain products, sometimes you just need a pen. This pen writes on all paper and upside down in temperatures from -30F to 250F.

4 out of 5 stars Reliable pen, if a little expensive.   May 21, 2010
Joel Ryan Deshong (DC Metro Area)
I camp in an area with a lot of sand in the soil. Normally, I'd go through a pen a day journaling because the sand binds up their mechanism. I've had to get this pen started once or twice, but it has been going strong for a couple weeks now with no signs of real problems.

As a police officer I find myself writing in all weather conditions and the Rite in the Rain products never fail me. There's nothing worse than handing a form to a citizen to fill out on a damp or rainy day and then finding that half the form has become illegible due to ink fade by the end of the shift or worse, the citizen can't fill it out because the pen quits working.

It's much more convenient to have the person fill the form out wherever they may be, even if that means using a car window for their desk. The alternative is to do a pat down (even if they are just a witness) and put them in the patrol car to complete the paperwork. No thanks.

I've taken to running off some of our more common forms on the Rite in the Rain copier paper specifically for bad weather days. My fellow officers razz me about spending my own money for paper when they get theirs for free but the joke's on them when I clear rainy calls much sooner because I have all of my forms intact and legible. I also spend far less time drying out my paperwork before putting it in the captain's mailbox.

You can't go wrong with any of their products. I agree with the other commenter that you'll want to make sure you know where you can get refills, they're not always easy to find. I can get about a year from each refill but your mileage will obviously vary based on how much you write.

I took the Rite in the Rain pads and pen on a birding trip to the Amazon rainforest of Ecuador. I don't think there could be a tougher test for these pads and pen anywhere. They held up beautifully and I was able to record my bird sightings in all weather. Awesome products!


5 out of 5 stars Good for emergencies and general use.   October 17, 2009

I got one of these as a free gift from Rite In The Rain when I was still in the Navy. Back then they were considerably more expensive. Thanks to Amazon for making them a much better deal. These use the same inserts as the Fisher Space pen, but the body is much stronger. They could be used a hole puncher if needed. Everybody should keep at least one of these in their car for emergencies, along with a Rite In The Rain notepad. They are comfortable enough for day to day use, and sturdy enough for camping trips or cub scout jamborees. Any time you need a pen which holds up to more vigourous uses, get one of these.

This has got to be one of the best pens I have ever used. I work as a mechanic and my hands are almost always greasy. This pen will write notes on grease-smudged or damp paper with no problem. It is also very handy, especially for one-handed operation (no cap to remove). I have ordered several spares in case I lose it.
