Gets surprisingly hot in a good way for such a small unit. Works great and have used it for heat shrink as well as helping to remove various adhesives. Gets hot quick and is easy to direct, the heat never reaches your hand and it has a nice little stand built in so you make sure you don't burn any surfaces when you set it down to cool down, although honestly even without the stand just laying on a flat surface it's never at risk of touching anything and seems to cool very quickly. Just know it's a basic on and off with no temperature adjustment but honestly most heat guns you have to play around with distance anyway to get the right heat Read more

I have used this everyday for about a month now, and I've really put it to work in all kinds of conditions, and it really performs well. I develop and install marine power systems/electronics/everything, and I use a lot of heat shrink tubing and heat shrink connectors to create a seamless watertight connection throughout the vessel, and this little heat gun has sped up my work, made life easier, and has more than made up for its cost after it's first use. Is it perfect, no. But nothing is. If you use this for its intended use, it will work great, if you try to use it for another use, well that's on you. It fits well in your hand, you can hold it like a big pencil, or like a flashlight, you can set it on a surface, extend the little stand and you're hands free. The only thing I do not like is the nozzle tip comes off a little too easy, the slightly tapered end of the heating barrel is to fault. The cord could do with a rotating end on the unit, or perhaps a straighter cord to help it balance on a surface better. Also I'd like a few different tips, it would really open up many more practical uses. Overall I'd have to give the heat gun a 5 out of 5, and 3 out of 5 for the accessories. If you're looking for a small heat gun for small projects and things like shrink tubing and connectors, I'd try this. If this ever fails I'll get another from them before anywhere else. Read more

I like it. I wish I got a cordless but is fine. It gets very hot. Be careful. It helped flatten buckles in my watercolor. It really worked great. Read more

On the low setting this thing is perfect for heat shrinking battery pack shrink sleeve material that I use to protect various electronics. I string together a miniature voltmeter, a buck or boost converter, lipo batteries, and sometimes charge controllers to make power supplies for recharging or powering various projects. That sleeve material becomes very stiff after shrinking but being so wide, I have it in 30, 40, 50 and 60 millimeter tube diameters, it is very difficult to shrink uniformly with a torch and that leads to unsightly and gobby looking finished projects. This heat gun makes it simple to apply the heat uniformly over a large enough area at once to control the shrink rate and get a good finished shape. For really complicated ones I might add a strip of lexan as a back board to hold the whole assembly straight. I live offgrid and run this gun from a 600 watt Xantrex pro watt inverter. On low it consumes about 150w which is so low I don’t hesitate to use the thing any time day or night. The only way to improve this would be if it took Dewalt 20v 5a battery packs instead of 120v AC so I don’t have to fuss with plugging it in and turning on the inverter. Read more

I had doubts if this would do the job, but so far so good. When the weather warms up I need to change 5 lights that surround my patio and want to make sure the connections are waterproof. I'm using 12ga marine wire and heat shrink butt splices. I read in reviews that this tool would work with electrical connections, but no detail. We'll I received the tool, tested it, and it worked, relatively quickly. I'll be anxious to see how durable it is (when the weather warms), and I'll update this if I've had any problems. Read more
