That's battery operated, which isn't terrible, but I like having the air powered Airzound. I top up my tires every sunday night for the week's commute, then just hook up the pump to the Airzound and check the pressure there too. I've already got enough things on rechargeable batteries that adding a Hornit wouldn't be that bad, though.
BTW, the psi rating on Airzounds is now 80 psi, so maybe they last longer? I've had mine since about may or June and use it pretty regularly on my commute. I'd say about 50/50 on vehicles/pedestrians.

I really doubt they changed the design any, I suspect there are a few locales where the amount of decibels it puts out at 120 PSI make it illegal, so they downgraded the rating on the packaging.
