My "I'm glad I have it" moments come when my body is in an awkward position 
under a vehicle with one hand holding the coupler on
the zerk and the other hand holding the gun in some bizarre position. Then the 
- only or fourth - depending on how you look at
it - thing I need to do at the same time is pull the little trigger rather than 
squeeze the whole handle.

I've found these go on sale for $19.99 every so often and I see that Harbor 
Freight has their's on sale now for $11.99

so it isn't like you'd have to spend a lot for the extra convenience.
