Most good crushers that I would recommend would require strength for twisting, etc.

Depending on what the pills are, warm water soaks in a tiny plastic cup and then using more of a shake method might work, before pouring the slurry + warm water in the tube.
 
We have a granite pestle and mortar that I bought online. It works well.

I have one of those but have only used it for cooking. I would think it would take a bit of strength and coordination to crush a pill.
 
Mortar and pestle works best. It crushes the pills into a fine powder that has no way of clogging the syringe or tube. Maybe that's why you see them on pharmacy signs.

I bought a battery power pill crusher online called a NNOVEA. Bought it about a year ago and it works fine, crushes all my vitamins and pills twice a day and then my wife puts them trough my PEG because I can not stand the taste of them. I think the cost was about fifty bucks.
