Works Great!
Would RecommendLightweight, easy to use. Would recommend the 6AMP battery for it to get longer run times.
DeWalt Heat gun
Would Not RecommendThe DeWalt heat gun is a great choice for those looking for a battery-operated option. With its powerful performance and precise temperature control, it can handle a range of tasks with ease. The compact design and long battery life make it a convenient tool for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike.
For hobby projects only
Would Not RecommendEasy to use, but definitely for smaller touch-up projects only as it drains batteries and takes much longer to reach it's max temp.
In a pinch tool
Would RecommendOkay now, it serves the purpose. You need a quick solderseal or shrink tube some wire, thaw a frozen lock, peel off a label or sticker,or work some bubbles out installing some graphics. It will do it and that's all it is meant for small quick tasks as it burns through batteries at high speed. Does its duty. You got a big job use a corded heatgun. Lock on feature is a plus. I can't speak on the longevity but its a dewalt so I'm not worried.

Fan blows like a light breeze
Would Not Recommendbought this for multiple purposes, my first use was thawing out some trailer locks in the field on a windy cold day.... this heat gun doesnt have the fan strength to overcome a mild breeze much less a sustained gust of wind. It is basically worthless in the field and I will be returning to get my money back
