I like the fact this has two different heat options low and high. I also like it has a locking trigger so you can set the gun down and heat the object using both hands. What I dont like is the fan is not very powerful as far as blowing the hot air. It is no where near comparable to a Milwaukee heat gun when it comes to the fan blowing inside it. Only reason I rated it a 4 star other than that has more features than the Milwaukee.

I have been on the Dewalt 20 volt, platform. For several years. All of the tools I have purchased, have been worth there weight, in gold. Until I bought the heat gun. There were a lot of negative reviews, I figured it’s Dewalt. It has to be good quality?. This is a tool that needs more power, or should be left, as a plug in. I have a $10.00 heat gun, that puts it too shame. It does not even get hot enough, to melt heat seal butt connectors, that I use by the hundreds. Live and learn, I should have listened to the other reviews.

I own several heat guns, and while this one is not as powerful as a standard corded heat gun, I use it mostly for heat shrink work and for that the grab-n-go convenience cannot be beat. The heat level on the high setting is sufficient and it works perfectly. A larger battery (5.0Ah or 6.0Ah) works best as the small 1.5Ah battery that I tried drained too quickly (only provided 3 min of runtime). The form factor of this gun is really nice as well as it looks and feels like a cordless drill. It can even be laid on it's back so that the nozzle points up (like most standard heat guns). Overall just another great tool from Dewalt.

Nice little heat gun for what it is. It's not as powerful as a plugged in unit but gets the job done with some patience. Dewalt is my go to brand for battery powered tools.

Really a poor tool. Heats up fine but air just dribbles out. Needs a far more powerful fan. If you use a corded heat gun you will be disappointed with this. I really wanted to like it. Maybe DEWALT can get a better fan in the future. I sent it back.
