There are so many stylus pens out there, and I don't want to buy the wrong kind.

I don't need the fat rubber tip thing, I have one.

Which style do I get for writing notes, drawing fine lines, etc. like a regular pen on my android tablet?

    Capacitive touchscreens like those used on most Android devices use a wide tip stylus, emulating the finger they were designed for. Some stylus designs use a powered 'active stylus' that uses a transparent tip that, though still wide, lets you see accurately where the center of the tip is.

    There isn't one with a narrow writing tip that would work?

    Do the "capacative" all need a battery or to be charged?

    The ones that use the narrow tipped pen have different hardware to 'read' the pen touch. You can read that as 'more expensive'. Check out devices with a Wacom digitizer for examples.
