Need Help Choosing a New Stapler T50

I had my old pneumatic and cheapo electric t50 stapler die in one day so I need a new one.

I have a have brad/pin nailer and a finish nailer so I don't "need" that function. Just need to drive T50 staples.
I know battery powered is more expensive, pneumatic needs a hose which can be a pain for small jobs and electric is almost as inconvenient as pneumatic.

I don't see most product specs talk about T50 though they mention stapling so it's confusing to me.

Any recommendations/advice?

Years ago I made the mistake of buying a Craftsman. When it finally died I was happy and went out and bought an Arrow T50. It has never failed to work once and it's been used to hang a bunch of insulation and hundreds of targets.

Is this what you need?
I have one and it works without fail unless it because of staples get jammed when low in the magazine
I was hoping for something powered. When I use staples I use quite a few at a time. Long time ago I had spring loaded one and was pretty hard on the hands and too many miss fires

I use Surebonder air staplers, both the T50 and the Wire staples for upholstery work. I find the wire staples better for that type work.

I also own an older Arrow T50 stapler, for those one or two staple jobs. Great old piece of gear.

So I decided on a corded Dewalt DWHT75021 for larger jobs and a manual Dewalt DWHTTR510 portability. Yea, I like Dewalt
