Yellow caulking gun 2 battery

Impressive! Long battery life! It did a great job on our large unfinished basement perimeter ! Did the entire job in a third of the time a regular caulking gun with still a lot of battery life still available

Bought this tool for an upcoming bathroom remodel that will require lots of 10oz adhesive, silicon, and caulking. I knew I didn't want to be giving myself arthritis with the manual caulk gun, so we got this to make it easier. Pretty easy to get the hang of, you have to get use to how long it takes before product starts coming out of the tip. It backs off the pressure on it's own when you release the trigger, which helps to reduce extra caulk from dripping out of the tip, but you still have to be careful. I laid down an entire tube of black silicone for a rubber garage door thresh-hold, didn't have any problems with product coming out the back. One thing I would recommend: you never know when an older tube of product (or a new one with really thick consistency) might leak out the back side and you don't want to get it all over the gun and especially not in the geared plunger or it will get into the interior of the gun and gunk up the motor. So take a small piece of a plastic bag and place it around the head of the plunger. This way if any caulk comes out the back, it should only get on the plastic bag. I can't see any instances where it would get on the geared rod because the product will be on the walls of the tube. This just helps to protect the gun, and if it does leak, it's easy to toss that piece of plastic without getting product everywhere. When you puncture the seal inside the tip of a tube, rotate the rod/nail/whatever around a little ways to make sure you've created a large enough hole in the seal. It doesn't take but 20 seconds to check if the backside of a tube is leaking after you lay a little bit down. Just hold the release switch and manually pull the rod back just far enough where you can get the tube out of the holder and check it before you keep going. Also make sure you cut a large enough hole on the tip, if it's too small then the backside is likely to be an easier point of exit than the front side. The only time I did have that happen a little was when I was using an OLD tube of caulk on some basement windows and it had obviously dried out some. The new tube of caulk I used didn't have that problem at all. So just be careful, no one like's cleaning up product off the holder, the rod, or the gun. So use my plastic bag trick. If you need to lay a really small, controlled bead of product, then use a manual gun for that and also a caulk-shaping tool after you lay down the bead. If you need to lay a medium/large bead of product on a long run or a project where you're going to go through a lot of product, then this tool will be perfect for you. Use painters tape to mark off your walls/floors/ceilings/windows whatever if you really want a clean, professional edge to the product.

Purchased for a small job after old manual caulk gun was trashed. Instructions are horribly translated into English and outright incorrect about one button’s function lol but otherwise worked fine. Constant flow takes a little adjusting to. Would recommend practicing on a piece of scrap wood first if never used an electric gun.

Works well. Probably not contractor grade but if you're a homeowner tackling a medium to large project its ideal.

We have a good bit of stonework on our property, including a bunch of manufactured stone steps that have now aged to the point that every few months one comes loose and needs to be re-set. The heavy-duty adhesives are *really* thick, and it used to be quite difficult for me to squeeze the proper amount of glue onto the stones. I think almost anyone would struggle a bit with these types of materials, but I have lower-than-normal grip strength and had to devise all sorts of gymnastics to be able to squeeze out what I needed. Then I found this power caulking gun. Simple to set up, with multiple batteries and surprisingly good value for the money. The next time a step came loose I loaded the concrete adhesive and voila: no heroic efforts required! A big fat worm of adhesive at the press of a button!! This has changed the "uh oh, we have another loose step" from a giant pain into a mild nuisance. Separately, I had the "opportunity" to re-caulk one of our bathrooms. Again, this made the job far easier than my prior caulking efforts. Pro tip: it's pretty easy to have too much caulk coming out, so use a smaller opening on the tip of your adhesive/caulk/glue than you might when you don't have power assist. I don't know how long the battery charge lasts because I never came even close to draining a battery. Some other reviewers mentioned trouble with the built-in light, but mine works well and exactly as expected.
