My Marmot PreCip jacket is getting old. I should replace it soon.
The editor of Wilderness Trailcraft switched from a PreCip to the O2 Rainwear Jacket by RainShield.
“This jacket is nearly perfect for me because it is extremely light (5.7 oz), a bit fragile and very cheap. I bought mine on Amazon for just under $30! Fragile is no problem when you don’t wear it very often.”

Looks interesting.

Also being tested is the (slightly heavier) Zealot Jacket by Outdoor Research. I’ll be watching that blog to hear which jacket they like best.
