Yes, seriously.
Just topping off for a ride? Well, putting the stupid chuck on lost you 40 PSI, so you're gonna be doing a few more than 2 or 3 pumps.
New tube? Hah, more like 60 or 70 pumps with that POS.
Seriously.
OP, just use your REI thing for the same pump I finally switched to, this:

You won't be sorry. Now, when I check my pressure to top off before a ride, 9 out of 10 times, I lost no pressure over night and I lost no pressure putting the chuck on and I give it a half-a-pump and take it right back off. Gone are my days of pumping away every morning in the parking lot before a ride. I now actually get time to chat with other riders and build friendships. I'm a much happier man these days and I attribute it all to finally getting away from that Lezyne pump and into a Joe Blow.
Okay, that might be a bit of an exaggeration, but not by much.
My new Lezyne Super Enhanced GPS computer, however, I love... so far.
