Which Cordless grease gun Alemite or Lincoln??

[kingston]

I was hoping that some of you all might have some experience with these two brands of cordless grease guns. My concerns are build quality, battery life, and PSI. I am leaning toward the 14.4V Alemite.

Thanks,

Brian

Lincoln

I have a lincoln 14.4 that I got second hand (thanks andy) and it's still on the battery that he had on there. I got it back in September and have run half a dozen tubes, maybe even 10 or so, thru it.

PSI is incredible. The tracks on my Carlton 7015 trx are tensioned with grease and take a high psi to get them tight enuf. (Actually bursted the hose on a hand held greaser.) The gun just pushed them snug no problem at all.

Mine is a Lincoln. It is at least 10years old. Is run multiple times a day. Still using the same batteries. Gun has been used in the heat and the freezing temps of the winter. I've left it in the rain and the back of the truck I don't know how many times. It must have pumped thousands of tubes of grease and still keeps chugging away. I don't know anything about the other brand but my Lincoln is like a Timex watch "it takes a lickin but keeps on tickin."

Of course now that I stated how tough my gun has been you almost know that it will pack it in sometime today. Ha

I have the Lincoln. I did not know there was another brand. The downfall is I need more batteries and just like every other gun priming can be a PIA.

More batteries? Just how much do you grease?

I've never had any trouble priming mine. Just hold the trigger down for about 3-4 seconds and out comes the new grease.

If you have a problem...

priming, we have luck with this method.
As your tightening the barrel after a reload, stop just a thread or so from the top. Hit the trigger and then start tightening immediately, it should purge the air fast.
