My two bay man cave garage has two hose reels at the front/center of each bay . I have a vertical tank twin cylinder IR compressor in an outside insulated room . So it's very easy to flip on the compressor and roll out whichever reel I need . My air tools consist of two 1/2 " impact guns , 3/8 + 1/2 " air ratchets and a cut off tool .
Battery tools are Ridgid 1/2 " impact gun plus a torque gun , a drill and small hand held compressor . For my DIY type work the battery impact is my go to . The convenience and power is hard to deny . But battery and air power can coexist . I am an old school guy and it took me a while to add the battery arsenal . A few years ago I replaced all the deck boards on our very large deck . That battery torque screw gun was amazing driving in the screws .
I would say my use is 50/50 between the air and battery tools . It is nice to have options as needed .
