Dewalt 18V Grease Gun ?

I loaded up with cheap aftermarket batteries to keep the yellow tools going...

What did you do with the yellow tools when you went red?

I gave most of them away. I will look and see what I have left. If it is anything good I will bring them up when I come in a few weeks your welcome to them.

They can all fail. I really like my Milwaukee Fuel 3/4" impact..... but had to send it out for repairs the other day. We'll see how the warranty is.

Just last month I started replacing my DeWalt tools with the newer Milwaukee Fuel series, so far they seem impressive - but time will tell.

Why did you go red ?

Mainly based on the recommendation of my cousin (mechanic at the local JD dealership) and a buddy who works for the local electric Co-Op. Also, Milwaukee has an 18V 1/2" impact with 1400 ft/lbs that DeWalt has no answer for at this time - and I've just plain never had much luck with DeWalt batteries.

Have you thought about just giving it a good bump against a heavy bit of metal. That is what I do along with pressing the bleed valve a couple of times and most of the time it works. I also think that some tubes of grease feed in better than others.
