its pneumatic......you'll need a compressor , and its a great nail gun.i have all of bostitch nail guns.

It is pneumatic powered only; no battery; no gas cylinders either. I used a smaller 6 gallon tank and it delivered sufficient power; never slowed me down. I have used it for framing with great success. I also own three smaller Bostitch pneumatic guns and all are very reliable. Just ensure you add drops of recommended lubricant at the hose connection before each daily use to get optimum performance. It's a great gun.

It is pneumatic. I've been using a 6 gal Campbell Hausfeld compressor with 1/4" quick disconnects at about 90 - 100 psi for metal connectors and 16d nails and have never run out of air. I bought it mainly for the metal connector ability, which it does great, but is also great for down to 6d nails. Just turn down the pressure on the smaller nails.

Hope this helps..."Is the battery replaceable?" - YESAnd is the compressor hose on back - YES"how is the hose stored" - IN A COMPARTMENT ON THE BACK OF THE UNIT AS WELL AS NEEDLE AND INFLATABLES HEAD ATTACHMENTS"is there an air gauge." - YES

NO, it an electric powered compressor. While mine worked well for a time, it broke down due to a cheap plastic part in the pressure regulator.

It is battery powered. (Sorry I had to delete previous answer accidentally posted using our office account.)

It is battery powered only. It seems to use little battery power, I'm still using the original batteries I installed.

It is battery operated, the handlebar attachment hardware is not strong enough to withstand a reasonable jolt resulting in the unit falling off and breaking. I purchased another one which arrived broken, so purchased a third unit and I broke it by accident. But it is battery operated and operates as promised.

I use a battery-powered air pump to inflate mine. (It can also be used to deflate it.) It uses 4 "D" batteries. Bought it on Amazon, but I noticed that the one I bought isn't available anymore. Just do a search for "battery powered air pump" and you'll probably find something similar. Just make sure that the one you get has different size nozzles so that you can use it with other inflatable devices.

this is not a battery operated unit. It must be plugged in to an outlet or extension cord. It really puts out the air, however, and the 3 nozzles are adaptable to many blow up inputs.

It is not battery powered. It is plugged in. I bought around Christmas and I have had no problems with it.

This features a 190cc Briggs & Stratton 675 Series gasoline engine. It is not battery powered.

They are battery powered but the units are sealed. It should be good for about 10 years. I use them on all of my gas powered tools.

You need to buy an air pump. I have an electric one, but they do offer battery operated ones. The battery operated ones eat batteries though so if you will have electricity access, that's what I recommend. (They have some that work on car voltage.) It doesn't need to be a real expensive one. But I use mine to blow up floats and have even blown up balloons with it.

it is powered through an air compressor which needs to plugged into an electrical outlet. So you will need an air compressor with hose to attach to the nail gun . . . I read a few reviews and found this information.

It is electric operated. The cord is a bit short (but not impractical) so u'll have to set up close to an outlet or use an electrical extension.

It's cable powered. By a too short cable in my opinion. Battery powered would be so great, but no... Primitive mind hasn't perfected so a glorious thing.

It uses unthreaded 12 gram co2 powerlets. It also has a unique system for puncturing seal.

It is not battery powered. I use it to blow up tow toys on my wakeboard boat. It plugs into electric outlet on the boat and the cord is plenty long (5'-6' + or -).
