What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Just like my uncle carl. Hot. Quite satisfied.
This is a must have heat gun for any electronic or diy workshop. Product gets hot enough for any heat gun use and has a little stand and different nozzles. Used with heatshrink solder connectors.
The quality is almost same as the generic one in store. No fancy features (2 heat settings), no fancy packaging.
Cons
Switching from high to low power caused visible spark right below plastic toggle switch. Media could not be loaded.
Box was crushed/ripped, seal broken and extensions were repacked in a poor and untidy way. Clearly a refurbished product being passed on. I suspect it pulled too much current for the coils.
Highlights
Quality
The quality is almost same as the generic one in store.
No quality issues, it heats up quick, big difference in temperature between the two settings on it.
Standard quality, light but could be a bit sturdier.
Price
Not for heavy duty work, but perfect for my use and the price is right.
Can't speak to it's longevity as i will only use it occasionally, but it works well and the price is right.
Lots to nit pick if you want to get granular however for the price, zip my lips.
Shipping
Shipping was fast a lot fast then i expected.
Packaging/appearance
Although the product worked really well, the packaging is a normal brown box 📦.
No fancy features (2 heat settings), no fancy packaging.
Competitiveness
Haven't used extensively but used with heatshrink solder connectors.
