DEWALT D26960 Heat Gun with LCD Display Review

I didn't know what to expect having only used a basic heat gun once before . It's much nicer. I bought this heat gun to shape Kudex sheaths and holsters. I used it to make a small adjustment and I'm impressed with how quickly it heats up the area. I set it to 300 degrees and I was up and running in no time. I feel the result is consistent with the setting. The "stand" function is practical, I can put the gun with the nozzle upwards. I haven't tried heating it in this position, but it should…

At first I thought the LCD display might be a gimmick, but being able to read a specific temperature turned out to be very useful. When melting embossing powder, a setting of about 700 degrees is equivalent to guns designed specifically for embossing powder. The temperature of the shrink tubing depends on its thickness. Just use a piece of scrap metal as a test piece and note the optimal temperature. The legs, which can be extended to form a tripod, are very effective. This works well for a…

The design of this hair dryer is really great. The digital readout gives you precise control over heat output, from drying damp newspaper to melting solder. I like the built in feet that allow you to safely place the gun while it's still running or hot. The gun reaches temperature in 30-45 seconds and can change temperature in about 15 seconds. It is useful to understand that the temperature setting for low and high fan speeds is saved separately. I used to think I could let the tool warm up at
