My first cordless electric grease gun was a Lincoln. It was a 14.4 volt ni-cad. It was way better than hand pumping grease. I run heavy equipment, front end loaders and excavators in sometimes frigid temperatures (Denver). I had to have 2 batteries. It was disapointing how quickly the batteries wore down, and how long it took to charge them up. I ruined the gun by running it down til the batteries wouldn't turn it over anymore. Then I got a great deal on a Lincoln 12 volt ni-cad grease gun. I learned not to run it till the batteries were dead. It lasted me a couple of years, but battery life was always a disapointment. Then I got a PowerLuber brand grease gun, again ni-cads and disapointing. It only lasted about a year. This Lincoln 18 volt Li-ion grease gun is fabulous. It is light years ahead of anything I have ever used. It seems to run forever on a charge, and it has undercharge protection, so you won't burn up the motor if you try to hit those last 2 zerks when the battery is too low. It is unbelievable how great it is to be able to see how much battery life you have left at any time, and be able to "top off" the charge before a big greasing event ( no battery memory issues). It is nice to know at a glance how much grease is left in the gun, too. THIS IS THE BEST EVER GREASE GUN!
The price was also a good one.Worked right out of the box, no assembly required. Is very fast when in high good for areas that need a lot of grease. You need to use low for smaller areas or you will waste grease.
