Awesome Cordless Glue Gun,
This review is from: ColdHeat 30116 Cordless Glue Gun Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
I had a great time testing out this cordless glue gun. It has several handy features and works very well.
I was skeptical about the cordless feature, as some in the past have not worked as well as my corded version. Let me explain how the cordless action works on this glue gun. It is very similar to our cordless drill. The battery snaps into the bottom of the handle. To charge, it fits into a small charger which can be kept anywhere near an outlet. The charger flashes a green light while charging and then a steady light once charged. The initial charge took just a couple of hours. The instructions say the battery has no "memory effect" - it can be put back on the charger even if it's not fully discharged. With the battery, the glue gun weighs less than 12 ounces. It feels very comfortable to hold and use. The glue gun has a trigger so glue only comes out when you need it, and a work light at the tip that illuminates exactly where you are working. The light can be switched from high to low intensity. There's a clear window on top so you can easily see when to add another glue stick. This gun takes mini-size low temperature or all-purpose glue sticks. Cold Heat also sells glue sticks just for this gun, that they say will maximize battery life. Right by the opening for the glue sticks, there are two small lights. One is a low battery indicator and the other is the PowerSave indicator. If you do not move the glue gun for eight minutes, it switches to this mode and stops heating the glue. As soon as you move it, it heats up again. The glue heating time was very quick. The gun is well-made and easy to use. It does not drip when resting, which keeps your workspace much cleaner. The FreeStyle Cordless Glue Gun is packed with features and works great.

Great Light Duty Glue Gun,

This review is from: ColdHeat 30116 Cordless Glue Gun Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
The cordless feature makes this glue gun very handy. Heat up time is 3 or 4 minutes, and the applicator puts out a nice fine line of glue.
But, this is a light duty gun. Too much pressure on the trigger, in an effort to get a faster flow, has the effect of cooling the tip and stopping the flow for a second. Also, that same forcing of the trigger causes the advance mechanism to scrape the top of the glue stick and it won't advance at all till you ease up and slow down. Of course, if you are doing these things, you need a heavier duty glue gun. You can find them at www.glu-stix.com, all the way up to industrial strength with pnumatic force feeders. For most of us, and most of the tasks we want the glue gun for, this one is great. As a side note, the glu-stix.com site has bulk boxes of mini sticks, and special purpose glue sticks as well.

Poor implementation!,

This review is from: ColdHeat 30116 Cordless Glue Gun Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
After just three months the batteries no longer will hold a charge. I even have one of their extended run batteries - same problem. On a freshly charged battery the glue gun will clam it is not charged and the red light comes on signaling a battery problem. I love the idea of a battery operated glue gun. This product is not made well a big disappointment.
