Not enough heat
Would Not RecommendI have used this heat gun several times for heat shrinking around electrical connections and thawing a frozen ice maker. It just doesn’t produce enough heat using fresh batteries. I would not recommend it to a friend and frankly, I’m surprised that over half of those that purchased it gave it 5 stars.

Convenience
Would RecommendThis Dewalt heat gun is great for small projects. The 2 zone temperature control works well. I found it useful for removing labels from boxes and old caulking. As expected it is battery hungry so it may not be the best option for larger projects. So far no issues however I question the trigger and trigger lock longevity.

DeWalt Heat gun
Would RecommendThere are multiple uses for this product. I have use it for heating irrigation tubing, shrink wrap and to defrost refrigerators and freezers. Anywhere you need to apply heat to to complete a project. The unit has two temperature settings and the two attachments aid in applying heat to the object under repair. The battery operated capability allows this unit to be used anywhere needed.
