OEMTOOLS 24665 Dual Temperature Heat Gun 1200W Corded Hot Air Blower 120V Shop Heat Gun For Vinyl Wrap

I mostly use a heat gun for bending acrylic tubes for watercooling hardlines and this thing fits the bill. The 2 settings let me decided if I'm trying to sculpt art or just get something inside the box, fast and dirty like. It has a nice flat, sturdy backend that works nicely as a stand up base, so I don't have to worry about knocking it over by just bumping its aura or anything. It does what it's supposed to do, and it didn't cost a ton. I like it. Read more

There’s nothing to complain about with this heat gun, as far as I can tell. That said, I’m not a heat gun connoisseur. This is the only one I’ve ever used. It was self explanatory. It has two settings, it blows heat. I picked it up because I do stained glass, and sometimes the price tags and product labels seem to get really stuck on there. So I used this best gun to get a few off. It worked fine. 30 seconds on low heat and the stickers peeled off more easily. It probably would have been even easier if I held it longer, but it does have a burning plastic smell that I found unnerving. I can’t say for sure if that’s unusual though. For all I know, all heat guns smell like that. I couldn’t see anything obviously wrong with it. Read more

Since I do a lot of work with electronics I own several heat guns. From using heat-shrink tubing, to heating up components that I need to remove from a circuit board, I’m often using some type of heat. While I do own a hot air station, I needed something more portable and easier to move around my work area. This dual-temperature heat gun has really worked out well so far. The dual temperatures blow heat at 482°F and 842°F and they high setting gets very hot. In fact, it gets as hot as my full hot air station does which for me is perfect, but may be too much heat for most regular use cases so make sure of your heating requirements. The heat gun is well constructed - it’s solid, the switches work well, and I even like the bright lime green color too. This is an excellent heat gun for a variety of uses - crafting, removing paint, shrink wrapping, electronic repairs, etc. Very happy with my purchase and it’s definitely a recommend from me, especially is you need a reasonably priced hot air solution for electronics work.

Absolute junk, item only works on low and will not go on when set to high. Waste of time! Read more

This is easy to use. Switch turns to hot and really hot. I use it when I am using resin to get the air bubbles out. Read more

This is a nice corded dual-temperature Hot Air Blower. The lower setting blows air at 482 °F, while the higher setting ramps it up to 842 °F. The device is lightweight and comfortable to hold for extended periods of time. I use the lower setting to shrink plastic sleeves on electric cables during repairs and installation. On the higher setting, the heat is so intense that it tends to melt the plastic sleeves. In the attached photo I am heating a plastic carpet strip to make sure the glue adheres well to the floor - the lower setting got the job done without damaging anything. This is a powerful hot air blower; it works well for me.

The paint bubbled and peeled off my door that I was stripping quickly. I swore 30 years ago that I would never take on this project again because the heat gun I used was torturous, and left paint streaks and blobs behind behind. Much better experience this time. Read more

This is my first-ever heat gun, so I have nothing to compare it to. I can say that it gets very hot, and the higher setting gets even hotter! :) It’s easy to use and handy to switch from one heat setting to the other. Its ‘off’ setting is between the two heat settings. I need to do some practicing with my technique, but I tried it on a glass jar to remove the label. It did heat the label enough to be able to peel it off quite easily. There was some residual glue, but that was to be expected. I’m thinking that it will work very well for a future paint removal project. If it doesn’t, or if it malfunctions in any way, I’ll be back to update! Read more
