Review on πŸ”₯ Compact Dual-Temperature Mini Heat Gun: Ideal for Crafts, Epoxy Resin, Phone Repair, and Electronics DIY with Reflector Nozzle and Shrink Tubing by Tommy Willis

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Suitable for home use

Let's get straight to the point: Advantages: 1. Wired - ensures long continuous use. The rechargeable hair dryer is large and has a limited service life. This tool is designed for use on a workbench.2. The temperature is acceptable but fluctuates within a few degrees Celsius. I have attached thermal images with my FLIR in both low and high heat. The temperature fluctuates slightly due to the air flow. It definitely works for heat shrink tubing and removing the glass screen from smartphones (it takes some time but it can work. The best solution is to use a hot plate to spread the heat evenly). If you are going to use it for arts and crafts then I think this block will do. Neutral: 1st Size - This weapon is fairly long (about 9 inches, not including the lanyard). If you need to use it in a limited space, this can be a problem. However, this is unlikely as its use is very limited. 2. Build Quality - I opened the unit and found that the build quality is not designed for long-term industrial use. The case may crack and break if dropped from a table onto a hard surface. Nozzle and burnt smell the first 3 times I turn it on/off. Since then, after continuous use, no smoke or burning smell can be seen. I can't say how long this tool will last as it depends on frequency of use and physical abuse (e.g. a broken appliance). If you only need to use it occasionally for a hair dryer, a hair dryer can also get the job done, but it takes time a while and is bulky. I don't recommend using this product to dry your hair or warm your face in a cold winter. I'm sure people have other creative uses for it.

Pros
  • Advanced dual temperature setting
Cons
  • Some bugs
