This heat gun is very poor for being a Daywalt product. It does not have enough fan power if that makes sense. It gets hot but doesn’t blow enough. I use this product to heat shrink after soldering on boats. It makes it very simple so I don’t have to drag extension cords around the dock and risk shock.
I would give it less than three stars if I didn’t have a purpose for it. But it is handy at times. Overall, I think it is overpriced for what it is. However, it is not that expensive if you can compare it to dealt ecosystem.

I primarily use this heat gun for 1″ blue and red shrink tubing. I have used it for smaller jobs, but the point of this review is that this heat gun is a MONSTER on the bigger stuff! It hasn’t disappointed yet! HIGHLY recommend this item -for me, it works EXACTLY as expected and handled every task I took on with it!

Nutshell: this tool WORKS AS ADVERTISED, PERIOD!
I did find that the “HIgh (2)” setting is best for processing heat shrink (yes, at the “expense” of battery life). I can’t think of “profitable” uses for the “Low (1)” setting.
With that typed, this tool is still VERY VALUABLE where you need “concentrated heat”, but don’t have AC power available for a corded heat gun.
Note for “Jon S”: yes, the “trigger lock” is designed for RIGHT-HANDED people. However, it ** CAN ** be used by “lefties” – activate and hold the trigger with the “tip” of the index finger, slide your left hand FORWARD so the “base knuckle” is over the lock button, then “squeeze” so the “knuckle” presses the “lock button”. After that, re-adjust the hand so it “properly” holds the gun. Yes, it’s not a “natural” action, but it works and, with practice, will become “second-nature” (at least, until/if DeWalt chooses to re-design the button for “ambidextrous” use 😉 ).
I ** DO INDEED ** recommend this tool for the “DeWalt 20V Universe” tool user… 🙂

Works great, used for heat shrink core ID’S within PLC.
Brought 18v batteries separately and still produces required heat.

👍🏻 Recommended: Despite less airflow than cheaper plug-in guns, this one provides plenty of heat & stands upright to cool off after using.
Cheaper plug-in heat guns have much higher airflow & higher temperatures. That being said, sometimes the cheap guns are too hot and blow too much air. This dewalt 20v gun provides plenty of heat for small projects. Less airflow with plenty of heat means you don’t have to worry about burning everything else nearby.
You also don’t have to worry about a cooling stand or heat resistant surface to set it down on after using it like you do with plug-in guns. They take forever to cool off & risk burning whatever surface they touch when laying down.

Heats up fast and gets hot but don’t hold to close unless you want it melted I personally used to defrost my drivers mirror other day it was so cold the mirror heat wasn’t even able to melt the ice on my mirror well I used to melt the ice used towel to clean it I could see again has a million different uses highly recommend over a flame torch

I was looking for a simple heat gun to use for simple heat shrink use. I already own a collection of 20V XR DeWalt batteries so this heat gun was a no brainer addition. Compared to my corded heat gun, this tool does not deliver the high heat (it is battery operated after all) output but it works just fine for its intended purpose.
This tool is very effective for heat shrink purposes. I have also tried it with solder wire joint splice and there is sufficient heat to melt the solder and heat shrink the sleeve around it.
This tool also makes it very easy to use a heat gun anywhere outside, or any remote location where access to AC power is problematic. You do need to keep in mind that since this is battery powered, your run time will be limited.

I’m a Dewalt guy and this heat gun dose not let me down yet.

The blower is so slow and heat come soooo late. I am really dissapointed in Dewalt, what were they thinking when designing this?!?? For this application, i will still stick back to wired heat gun instead. This one will head head straight to the “Museum”

It is a little pricey (-1*) but it works great. I like the trigger lock button so you can let it heat up (even though it does not take long). Wish it came with more nozzle attachments.

The DEWALT 20V Heat Gun is a game-changer for anyone who values portability and efficiency. Being cordless makes it incredibly convenient for working in tight or outdoor spaces where outlets aren’t easily accessible. It’s perfect for homeowner projects, whether you’re stripping paint, shrinking wrap, or loosening adhesives.
While it’s excellent for light to medium-duty tasks, it might not be ideal for heavy-duty projects where a plug-in heat gun would provide slightly more power and longer continuous operation. However, for general household tasks, the portability and ease of use more than make up for that. Highly recommend for DIY enthusiasts who need a flexible, reliable tool.
