Never paid much attention to them, but just saw some at a fossil plant I was working at. A good dozen of them, all well used at that. Huge and heavy industrial jobs, but saves more on the arm. Can't say I blame them guys either. And when it comes to tools, they get the good stuff and lots of it, for what they don't design and make in the machine shops themselves. Life aint easy, but their tools sure are awesome, and they've got it covered several times over.

I paid 189.00 for mine at Carquest for a 14.4 volt,and I love it.It has a low setting that just keeps hammering and will build a lot of pressure.we run 4 units mowing every night after work amd it really spedds things up.Takes a little getting used too but will not go back.Steve

I bought my dad the 14.4 volt lincoln for christmas. It is an awesome tool. I think dad has been using the old pump one for over 50 years and he really seems to like this battery powered one. We got two batteries with ours. I think it has already paid for itself with the time we have saved greasing planters, tractors, combines and implement. He walks around there once and it is done for the day. No more fiddling around with that nasty pump style one anymore. They have plenty of pressure too. I think they are rated at around 10,000 psi in low range. Great investment for a farmer.

Never used a battery operated one. Tried one that used air ened up giving it away,went back to the old reliable lever pump. Having to service logging equ. every week [i know over kill,grease every week] But these new ones do have a place they are safer.Guy out here lost an eye from a manual pump,zert would not take grease he keep a pumping, hose blew, Eye gone! You have to be a little smarter than the tool. When you take up slack in cat tracks I don't think these new one have pressure to do so. The old manual lever pump could get up to 8,000 psi.

I can't believe that the hose blew before the fitting came off the zerk.

Don't have one myself but several customers have bought the Lincoln's and they love them. Sure they don't develop enough pressure to force grease through a fitting caked with hard grease, but if you grease regularly, with a good quality grease, this shouldn't be a problem except on the rarest occasion.

I have the Lincoln and Im not impressed with the whole idea. #1 the grease gun will not shoot into stiff caked fittings. #2 when it does work its real easy to shoot too much grease. Im back to using a regular ole grease gun.

I have sold a lot of these over the past 5-6 years. The Lincoln is the only way to go. They were the first out with these and still have some patents the other guys can't get around. There are some others that will work for a while, but for a good quality piece the Lincoln is the best. Just my opionion!

If you would be happy with a 12V Lincoln,you would love a Chicago electric 12V grease gun from Harbor freight. I have used both,the performance is equal,the difference is the price. The Chicago electric gun costs $50 when on sale(which is most of the time) comes with two 1300 MAH batteries,(Same as lincoln),hard case and one hour fast charger. A replacement battery for the Lincoln cost $72,(both brand batteries are marked,made in China) the same capacity battery for the Chicago Electric cost $20. The job I bought the C E electric gun for normally uses 4 grease tubes per greasing,have run several cases of grease through the thing and has worked very well. The only problem I have had is that the gun comes with a thick rubber gasket where the grease tube screws into the pump head.remove this gasket away,as it prevents full thread contact of the grease tube in the pump head.
