What's the difference between an air gun and an electric gun?

There are some differences between air guns and electric guns in principle, power, use and maintenance. The specific differences are as follows:

1. Principle: An air gun is a tool that uses compressed air or gas to generate power, while an electric gun is driven by a motor.

2. Power source: Air guns need compressed air or gas to generate power, and usually use compressed air tanks, air compressors or gas barrels to provide power. Electric guns, on the other hand, need power, usually powered by batteries.

3. Usage: When using the air gun, it is necessary to connect the corresponding air source equipment, which will produce noise and gas emission when working. Electric guns can be used independently, without additional gas supply equipment, and usually operate quietly without gas emission.

4. Power and speed: Because the pneumatic gun uses compressed air or gas as the power source, it usually has high driving force and speed, and is suitable for some jobs that require high power and speed. However, due to the limitation of motor, the power and speed of electric cannon are usually low.

5. Maintenance and expenses: When using air guns, it is necessary to regularly check the gas supply equipment to maintain the gas pressure, and at the same time, it is necessary to purchase gas supply equipment and gas consumption. The electric gun is relatively simple, and there is no need for additional maintenance of gas supply equipment, only battery maintenance and replacement.
