Pros & Cons
Pros
These pens are very inexpensive; they're nice to hold; and write very easily. This pen is by far the best of the bunch i've used. Bought the 2 pack & will be using them when writing checks.
The energel is a little beefier than the 207, barrel and length wise. The 207 grip is bigger and squishier. The ink drys immediately and even though it is medium point, i am pleased that it still has a refined line when used.
Cons
They are terrible! Very disappointed in these. This is inexcusable and i cannot recommend them anymore!
Ink only comes out about 1/3 of the time unless you’re drawing a straight line, even on a hard surface. Even in a fresh notebook with so much cushion it skips. When they do write, they write scratchy.
The pen is very picky about what writing surfaces it want to work on. My handwriting is distorted, it's hilarious how they could mess up a * pen.
Highlights
Quality
Having arthritic hands, i need to have a gel pen that is really smooth and easy to write with, and this brand is working out nicely.
I love this smooth writing pen, and it’s permanent ink.
The ink from this pen - pentel energel pro permanent gel ink pen - could not be removed with acetone, clorox or water.
Writing with it glides along, it's the next best thing to using a fountain pen but without the fuss and dries faster.
Price
It cost him $1000 until it was proved to the bank that it was fraud!
And lastly the energel is not openable or refillable which was really disappointing for a pen of this price point.
I'm thinking of changing all my ballpoints over to this because it has put a little pleasure in what is often a dreary tasks an... Read More

Of course checks are on their way out of private consumer usage but in the meantime use these pens so the criminals who will steal check payments from your mail box or even from the public mailboxes cant 34wash34 your check clean and write themselves any amount from your account

Although the 207s walls feel a little thinner than the energels thick solid plastic i find the matte finish to look a little more premium it makes it where you cant tell its plastic off sight alone like you can with the energel and the big fat bar code on the side of the energel isnt too flattering either

The 207 also has a metal clip which is where the energel really cheaped out on with a hollow backed plastic clip which if youre like me and break clips all the time youll really appreciate that about the 207

Another point for the 207the energel does have a more satisfying click though if that matters to youwriting this one was tough as they are both top of the line when it comes to gel pens but i do feel like the energels inkflow feels a little smoother than the 207 and the ink is much darker and bolder on both blue and black models but there is something about the 207 when your pen glides across the paper its like you can feel the ball tip rolling when you write which gives a more responsive and precise feel
