Haven’t you tried the external cartridge type?
We have both. I still prefer the Alemite ones, but happy to use either. The speedy grease is probably better for nipples where it is hard to get the grease in, but the Alemite ones better as an all round grease gun. I'm not a fan of battery operated as there is no 'feel' especially on things like the combine.
