Einhell Power X-Change 18V Cordless Heat Gun - Battery Powered Hot Air Gun With Accessories For Paint Stripping, Vinyl, Crafts, Resin - TE-HA 18 Li Solo (Battery Not Included)

Product Information

Most projects and applications, however, don’t require the maximum heat levels you can produce with a heat gun. For example, you can solder around 600 ° –700° F depending upon the material you use (higher for lead-free). If you want to soften plastics, that occurs at lower temperatures—somewhere around 350° – 400° F. Paint stripping needs 600° F, and you thaw frozen copper pipes using some of the highest available temperatures. I mostly use this heat gun for small tasks, I have used it for shrinking and melting ice. It did a great job.

Airflow is also worth talking about. Both models have 7.1 CFM and the 02 includes a 4.2 CFM low speed. The extra features on Makita’s upgraded model give it a maximum runtime of 30 minutes on a 6.0Ah battery.Submersible Pumps - Fountain & Pond Miscellaneous and Transfer Pumps Pump Accessories Pump Controllers & Switches Hose Hose Clips Couplers, Valves & Filters Washdown Pump Kits Most manufacturers say that cordless heat guns last up to 50 minutes. But, from our tests, battery-operated heat guns last 30-40 minutes max. Q: Is a Cordless Hot Air Gun Expensive?

So cordless gives you convenience, but it may not make sense for every application and use. How Much Temperature Do I Need in My Heat Gun? The main differences are that cordless models are typically unable to achieve the same peak temperatures as corded models, are not rated in watts, and runtime is dependent on the capacity rating of a battery (measured in amp hours, or Ah.)If you’re here, you at least think you want a cordless heat gun. Whether that’s the best solution for you or not depends on your application. If you want to remove paint from the side of a 1920s home, cordless doesn’t make sense. It doesn’t tend to get (and stay) as hot as corded heat guns. A cordless heat gun also doesn’t have the continuous runtime you want when doing a larger job like that. This 3-in-1 heat gun is powered by butane gas, allowing you to use it anywhere without worrying about power cords or dying batteries. The multifunction tool is a mini torch, flameless heat gun, and soldering iron, and it runs for up to 90 minutes each time you fill the fuel chamber. My garage is pretty dark and a thing that helps me a lot while working is the LED light. This heat gun comes with an LED light that lights the area that you are heating. You’ll also want to consider the heat gun's temperature range, which can go as high as 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit. Applications like paint stripping require extremely high temperatures, but if you’re just planning to craft with the tool, you might be fine with a model that only reaches 200 or 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Additionally, some models allow you to select a specific temperature, while others just offer high and low settings. Other factors include whether the heat gun has different fan speeds and whether it comes with any attachments. How We Selected They are also lighter so you will be able to work for a long time without fatigue. And the best thing about portable heat guns? You won’t make any mess and you will save a lot of time. I move a lot while working so using a cordless heat gun helps me complete the project without having to change power outlets. Disadvantages of a Battery-Operated Heat Gun?

The Dremel VersaTip makes a great heat gun alternative thanks to the tips that come with it. We can say the same about the Dremel VersaFlame but we like the VersaTip’s compact size a bit more. The tip is for precision applications, so it’s smaller than the heating area on our other recommendations. You get a range of 1256–1832ºF and the 0.57 fluid ounces of fuel last up to 75 minutes. That’s a pretty killer combination if heat shrink connections are your primary focus.

But if they are better then why buy cordless heat guns? Probably my favorite cordless heat gun. The reason why I like the NEU MASTER NHG0140 is that I don’t see any noticeable differences between this cordless heat gun and a normal heat gun. It is a high-quality tool that I use a lot! This heat gun heat pretty fast too, sometimes it heats faster than normal heat guns. It reaches the operating temperature within 10 seconds. The maximum temperature that this tool can reach is 875° F. It comes with an LED work light that can help if you are working in dark spaces.A great heat gun that I tend to use a lot, I have actually bought some bigger batteries so it can last longer. I didn’t have any noticeable problems with this one. The DeWalt 20V and the Milwaukee M18 cordless heat guns were easily the most ergonomic models tested. Each one builds on the ergonomic designs used in their respective power tool lines, which are meant to be handled by professionals all day. Each one has a rubberized coating on the pistol grip, which not only keeps the tools from slipping in your hand, but also adds a nice level of comfort. While both are very nice, the DeWalt is slightly more comfortable to hold than the Milwaukee. The trigger-style safety on the DeWalt is easier to operate than the smaller safety on the Milwaukee, which is located strangely high on the grip, making it less than ideal for large hands or operating while wearing gloves. If you’re working in a location where there’s no outlet nearby, the DeWalt Cordless Heat Gun is the way to go. It’s powered by the brand’s 20-volt rechargeable batteries, and it can run for up to 42 minutes per charge. With no cord to get in the way, simple-to-operate trigger-style switches, and easy-to-handle pistol grips, the DeWalt and Milwaukee cordless heat guns are some of the easiest models to operate. The bottom-heavy weighting of the cordless models also earned these tools top scores for ease of standing and balancing. Of course, cordless convenience comes at the price of keeping a charged battery on tap. This will likely be a non-issue for folks who already frequently use cordless DeWalt or Milwaukee tools. But this may present a learning curve — and a significant extra expense — if these are some of the first cordless tools in your workshop.
