I love this pen! For everyday use, it's great. Very smooth writing, nice dark
ink, and a nice slim size. I haven't tested out all the more "extreme" uses yet,
but I'm very satisfied so far.

This review is from Uni-ball Power Tank Smart Series High Grade Ballpoint Pen - 0.7 mm - Light Blue Body
I bought the "cheaper" powertank series first about six months ago. It was my
daily use pen and I absolutely loved it. It never seemed to have any
ink-clumping and always wrote on the first time. I decided to get this High
Grade series because the only issue I had with the cheaper version was after a
prolonged daily use the end where you screw in the clicker started to crack. It
was a problem if I ever clicked/unclicked the pen multiple times quickly. The
pen would explode apart.
Now with this high grade series I can already tell that this won't be an issue
after prolonged usage. The barrel is aluminum, seems durable, color is vibrant.
It is a lot thinner than it's "cheaper" counterpart. The pictures definitely
don't do it any justice. I was impressed by its beauty upon unwrapping the
package it came in.

This review is from Uni-ball Power Tank Smart Series High Grade Ballpoint Pen - 0.7 mm - Silver Body
I purchased the Uni-Ball Power Tank Smart Series High Grade hoping that it would
function well with Field Notes' new Expedition series notebooks. The synthetic
paper doesn't treat most inks well and I hoped that the Power Tank would hold up
well.
I pleasantly surprised when it arrived. The Power Tank functions exceptionally
well with the Expedition notebook's synthetic paper. It even outperforms
Fisher's Space Pen cartridges; worth noting are line quality (the Power Tank
lays a very smooth line whereas the Fisher refills tend to skip) and dry-time /
smudging / smearing (the Power Tank's line dries far quicker, drying to
reasonable levels in nearly a quarter the time of Fisher's offering in my
not-so-scientific study).
With traditional paper the Power Tank performs admirably, as well. I have no
complaints with its writing performance.
The barrel's knurling (for lack of a better term) is very nice. It provides an
excellent grip while not being too aggressive. Also, it's rather nice looking;
certainly a plus.
Overall, an excellent pen. My only wish? A version with a red barrel.
Although, black, brown, and blue seem nice, too.

This review is from Uni-ball Power Tank Smart Series High Grade Ballpoint Pen - 0.7 mm - Light Blue Body
I LOVE THIS PEN.! The barrel looks very professional and is made of aluminum. I
love the way it writes.! It is smooth and doesn't require to much pressure to
write. The ink flows well there is no clumping. I don't know what to say about
this pen.!(: It isn't very heavy either.

This review is from Uni-ball Power Tank Smart Series High Grade Ballpoint Pen - 1.0 mm - Silver Body
Cool Factor awsome
Looks Awesome
Body feels awsome; its ribbed aluminum, well made
writes average, the Zebra Espina performs better
Ink is is a nice darkness, but feels drier has a slight drag. In comparison, the
Pilot Bps GP has about twice the gliding feel.
This pen is good for heavy handed writers, I have a lighter touch and I only use
it to sketch so I take it out when I want to impress people.
Worth the money? If you love good looking well designed pens and dont write or
sketch extensively, this is a fun pen to have in your collection.
