Dear Uncle Bumblefuck, My pretty girlfriend (who valiantly sits through watching your videos with me) finally looked up from her phone for the grand task of proclaiming "Honey Hes doing it wrong" she is actually a machine operator for an injection molding company and has informed me that.... At 3:28 the red part your finger is pointing at is actually molded first separately and then snapped into the empty mold for the green part. probably made on a different line before hand. Nice that she got one lol. Thanks from a night shift maintenance guy that has learned a couple cool tricks from you.

I was thinking those sprues looked oddly substantial. Nice to have it confirmed by an expert.

[@BigManko]

Steinel Neo 3 is where its at with cordless glue guns. Uses LiPos and works awesome. I've had mine for now almost 4 years, still chooches like the first day.

[@etelmo]

I'm using an older Neo1, no idea how long I've had it (years and years). Works really well once it's going however it's warm up is a longer than a wall unit. The upside is it's portable. Edit: Just opened it up, it's close enough in design that I would say it was probably designed by the same company, Steinel copyright numbers stenciled on the board under the battery. It uses a single Samsung 18650, however it's rated at 23A draw current (M letter code) while the cell in the Bosch appears to be 18A (Q code), no idea if that would make much of a difference or I'm just remembering the letter code incorrectly.

[@Criticalcore]

Any particular glue you could recommend? Been after a small glue gun or more so a handy one and these look perfect for casual use, might actually bite the bullet on one now.

[@Nacman34g]

It's the same thing. I saw another tear down of the this pen and on the back of the board it actually says Steinel on it. www.electrobob.com/bosch-glue-pen-teardown/

[@etelmo]

Out of interest due to the differing current ratings of the batteries used I opened my Neo1 up again and put a current clamp on the battery connection. From a 20c cold start it pulls slightly over 7A which would be around 24-30w depending on battery charge, over 10 seconds the current falls to around 3A and over a further 5 seconds falls further to 2.5A. 2.5A would appear to be it's idle current draw in a 20c room which equates to around 10w, however the case was open allowing airflow and thus some cooling so real world numbers may be slightly lower. Once heated to a steady state a glue stick was pushed into it with some force (an inch of glue stick in 3 seconds) causing the current to briefly spike up to 4.5A, this fell back to 3A in under a second once glue stopped being forced into it. Given the current draw seen in my testing I wouldn't expect there to be any difference in performance between 23A and 18A rated batteries, and there should be an easy run time bonus by substituting an INR18650-30Q which has double the capacity while still being rated for 15A continuous draw. Regardless I am happy with my glue stick as it currently performs given it's small size/weight, I find that as things get larger and heavier it becomes easier and easier to rationalize not carrying them in a grab bag and leaving them behind.

[@AmateurRedneckWorkshop]

A bit of a hot subject today. Glad to see you sticking to it.

[@raymondmucklow3793]

Maybe the reason for the blob instead of steady flow, would be the no thermal mass (as you compared to kryobie) no thermal mass. Meaning the hot bit is so small when hit the trigger it has to get the next bit of glue hot before it can release what's in the chamber. My wall plug glue gun the whole dam thing is hot, preheating the glue before it's in the tip and just the tip mind.

[@rookwiet895]

Nah, it's the pump mechanism. It only pushes the stick forward in the last couple of mm of the downstroke. You can control it, but you have to be really precise ... and not wildlarize it and/or improperly assemble it.

[@raymondmucklow3793]

rook wiet well I was trying my best to sound smart, but you called me out on it dam it. So don't pump it, stroke it and only at the end will you have control.

Really helps to get some nice fine tip tweezers to hold surface mount parts in place while you solder them. Also I like to use some modeling clay to put down and then jam the PCB down onto it to hold it in place while you are soldering.

EU spec charger will very likely work perfectly off of the wimpy 110VAC USA/Canukistan power, as pretty much every one with any real type approval ( and Robert Bosch will have all those marks ticked off correctly and not have the China export symbol only for show) is capable of multivolt operation from 90VAC to 265VAC, because that is what you get in the EU in most cases, and they are a worldwide brand, they do not want to have regionalised power bricks in most cases.

[@cdigames]

Michael O let’s be honest here any shop hand worth their salt can replace a bog standard 18650 with a 12v portable soldering iron from milfuckee and a hammer. Or screw driver if’n the glue pen is for the sewing room and you need to be delicate.

[@lilsammywasapunkrock]

It would be cool to keep one on my flight box for field repairs. I build some of my planes with dollar tree foam board and got glue.

[@Aubreykun]

Good for sticking in a backpack/bike box when traveling due to the smaller bulk/weight. I imagine the USB port means you could plug an auxiliary power source in to keep it running or charge it off a solar panel meant for phones. The lone 18650 also means that when the battery gives up the ghost (or if you find this thing cheap up for sale as NFG)in a couple years you can just replace it with a new one like +Brad Sparks said. My only concern is really that it doesn't seem to have that great impact resistance if AvE was able to bust it that easily while it was in the box. Not sure if it would survive an impact that would break whatever you need to hot glue.

18650 go at 4.2 max voltage, 3.7 nominal. even tho' the wall plugs are at 230 (yes, not 220, but 230, it was changed some years ago) the transformer only delivers 4.2 charging voltage anywhere in between 0.5 and 2 (tops) amps i am an engineer.

[@paulsengupta971]

As for 220/230/240V, it wasn't necessarily changed, just the spec was. In some parts of Europe there was 230, other parts 220, in the UK 240. In the name of European harmonisation, they specified everyone had to have 230. But they gave the tolerance such that it encompassed both the 220 and 240V systems, so no one had to actually change their voltage.

Seems like the pen really is only for kids stuff, or minior crafting done by the female volk. There is a regular glue gun size version of this by Bosch, i bought 3 of those for our company like 2-3 years ago. I havnt opened them up so far, but they must have more thermal mass than the pen version, once they are heated up after about 2 minutes you can nearly squeeze one whole stick thru it before it gets too cold. Im glad i did go for the gun versions instead of the pens :x

I've had one of these for just over 2 years and use it once or twice a week. It hasn't broken yet but the battery dosen't last long and can't be charged while in use. I mainly use it for architectual models so have to keep it pluged in between uses as it lasts less than one hour on a full charge. Not sure if it was the temp of your workshop or the fact that there was no glue in the barrel on start up but mine usaly only takes 30-60 seconds to heat up.

That's some interesting "arts and crafts" you got going on at the end. I'm also sure it's no co-incidence the appearance of cooled hot-glue shmoo.

The beginning of this video is everything! Hilarious!

New record opening time? Very interesting choice of tools.

Somewhere, a Bosch tech support soul died with that unboxing.

Serious question here, so I used to work with 18650 batteries every day at a vape shop but what are the differences between consumer 18650's and tool grade 18650's?

If you measure the resistance of the PTC (not PCT), you can do closed loop control of the temperature.

Ave.... were you using high temp glue sticks? I'd imagine the bosh takes low temp sticks, that would explain the blobs and not getting 6 sticks out of it.

You use the imperial system but I noticed you measure weight/mass in grams, do you prefer it to pounds/ounces?
