I always wondered why Makita can make a battery powered fridge but not a glue gun

[@joshuaking34]

Or a hundred angle grinders and only two brushed, fixed speed die grinders.

[@Heizenberg32]

​@@joshuaking34What do you want? MORE than two brushed, fixed speed die grinders?! I am joking

They always thought the purpose of glue was to be sniffed and didn't know it was actually designed to join things together

And a kettle

[@davepotato101]

Don't forget they also make a battery powered microwave 😅

[@davidwilson4190]

I bought this months ago, I have been using it frequently and it is an excellent tool. It outperformed corded glue guns I've used in the past. Even the included glue sticks are decent! There ya go!

[@Addly82]

I have also had this for months as well, it is my go to glue gun. I have built many cardboard forts for my kids with it, and it can push an entire stick without getting too cold.

[@FunkFPV]

Good to hear 👍🏻

[@christo930]

@@Addly82 It probably has a large thermal mass. The tradeoff is they tend to take longer to heat up. But once hot, they retain the heat much longer. Less cycling of the battery.

Hey, just have one question, does it stop at a certain voltage so it won’t damage the battery?

Had this for over a year. Use it for electrical, especially truck/ trailer lights. You can glue the plug to the back of the light to water proof it and hold it in place. Cordless heat gun to soften it to remove it.

[@chefdan87]

My mother is a school teacher and was in need of a battery powered glue gun for class projects. So instead of buying a more expensive one that might just get swiped by a punk kid i got her two harbor freight bauer glue guns. She uses them quite frequently. I know harbor freight has only a select set of tools that can actually be considered as quality tools. I will vouch for the glue gun, that thing works extremely well and the battery lasts longer than any project you will need a hot glue gun for. Good enough that i got one for myself.

[@speake7777777]

One of the most important test with generic power tools is to see if they included a low voltage cut off switch, AKA over discharge protection. A lot of cheap generic tools do not have this, and will run your battery down to absolute zero and destroy tour battery if you aren't constantly checking your voltage throughout the job.

[@FunkFPV]

This one shuts off at 14ish volts. All of the other Mellif tools I’ve tested do that same 👍🏻

[@speake7777777]

@@FunkFPV That's good. I've tested some tools that were still trying to run at 5V. One of them based around Makita batteries was being offered as samples to distributers, prior to being rebadged as a major commercial grade landscaping brand. I advised the distributer not to stock that particular tool unless the issue was fixed due to the soon to be incoming flood of warranty claims.

The only concern I would have... They were very generous with the glue sticks. Hopefully, that's not an indication of some proprietary size; where only they sell the sticks that will fit it.

DeWALT should make one that comes up to temp while docked on a benchtop station then switches to battery once you take it off and it only needs to maintain the temp. Probably the only way I’d consider a battery hot glue gun since I don’t want to wear out expensive batteries on something like that.

[@emmettturner9452]

Well, I just checked and it looks like Mellif also makes a DeWALT battery adapter for 120v. For that price I think I’ll just make my own out of an old battery shell and a switching PSU (maybe slower, but who cares?). I can make a tray on my workbench with something like that on one side and a charged battery on the other. If I disable the latch on the adapter then I can just grab it off the tray/dock and push it onto the battery and lift off the tray after it gets up to temp. I like this idea!
