Cordless Battery Powered Grease Guns reduces the time and effort required to lubricate bearings. For any facility lubricating more than 4 or 5 points a day, a Cordless Battery Powered Grease Gun makes good sense. Once you have decided to buy one, you are faced with the decision of which one to buy. You can find them as cheap as $100 or as expensive as $500. What is the difference and how do you get the most for your money?

Cordless Battery Powered Grease Guns are rated on Voltage and maximum pressure generated. They also can come with one battery or two batteries. Let’s examine all of these variables. The commonly available voltages are: 12, 14.4, 18 and 24 Volts DC. In general, the higher the voltage, the more power and more tubes of grease you can dispense before you need to recharge the battery and the heavier the Cordless Battery Powered Grease Gun will be. Make this decision by determining how much pressure you need and how many tubes of grease you will need to dispense before returning to the shop to recharge, or swap out, the battery.

Also most are near the shop every hour or two and dispense less than 10 tubes during that time. (Please realize that if you are dispensing more than 10 tubes of grease in an hour or two, you likely would be better served with a centralized lube system, rather than a bigger Cordless Battery Powered Grease Gun.)For most the major manufacturers of Cordless Battery Powered Grease Guns the 14.4 Volt model will be sufficient. Depending on the manufacturer you will get up to 10,000 PSI and up to 17 tubes of grease per battery charge. As stated above, this is sufficient for almost all applications.

There are times when a cheaper, lighter 12 Volt Model will fit the need, just as there will be times when the heavier more expensive 18 or 24 Volt Models will be needed. But for 95+% of users, the 14.4 Volt hits the sweet spot of performance versus cost and weight. The two major manufacturers of Cordless Battery Powered Grease Gun are Lincoln and Alemite. While both companies are owned by the Harbor Group, Alemite was the first to market with Cordless Battery Powered Grease Gun. Their 14.4 Volt model provides 10,000 PSI, is lightweight, and has and aluminum motor housing. The aluminum motor housing, compared to the plastic used by all major competitors, allows for a better heat dissipation and therefore longer battery life. Added up, the two battery model 585-B1 is the best value for the 14.4 Volt Cordless Battery Powered Grease Gun. They are available at dealers and web sites across the country.
