I've been a groundman at a hot mix asphalt plant for close to 20 yrs. The best grease gun I have used is the Alemite A500 lever type. I have 2 of them. On most days I go through 5-7 tubes of grease and average 10+ cases a year. That's over 250 tubes per gun. They are extremely durable. The only negative thing I can say about them is that I wear the lever pivot hole out. This usually happens towards the end of the season but that's also after thousands of pumps. I've had other brands that were junk in a few months. I never liked the battery powered guns because you can't tell if grease is coming out or not. With a lever type you can feel the pressure. Pistol grip types are ok for something that only needs a couple shots here and there but I have several fittings that take 25 shots per hour. The lever style is much easier on the forearms.
