i couldn't stop it from dripping for quite a while even after I stopped pressing on the trigger. so I understand that's part of the easy flow feature. how then do I stop it from dripping??
Question I have about this glue gun, is how hot does it the hot end get to? and is it classed as a High Temp hot glue gun or a low temp hot glue gun? Just wondering cause im planning on working with electronics so wires and connectors, as well as gluing them to dense plastics like HDPE, and was wondering if you think that this glue gun would work for that or if i should buy a different glue gun. Great video and review btw, you made it look like a star product XD
The older model gives you slightly more control because it has a manual trigger, but I dont like it because it turns off every few minutes. The only way to keep it from turning off is to fully depress the trigger which almost never do when am working on smaller projects. This newer model just has a button so it doesn't turn off if you're using it regularly. The newer one also doesn't have a silicone foot to give it a bigger base. Even so, it didn't tip over very much (It is pretty well balanced ) and I often found myself just laying out on its side. Other than that, the two glue guns are almost exactly the same. If had to pick one would pick the newer model even though it is slightly more expensive. That being said, these tools from HOT0 are super expensive compared to the industry standard. If you're on a budget, I recommend getting a cheaper glue gun from Gorilla glue.
No, I haven't seen it but I looked at their RUclips channel and it looks super cool! Sometimes when I see projects like that it makes me wonder why people watch my videos 😅. Thank you for the comment, - Eli
@@MakerBrain and I have also been watching a RUclips channel called A B creative and she has been using a hot glue gun to make beautiful pieces of art on canvas.
I just looked at the kit from Real Terrain Hobbies and it looks really cool. That is a nice little USB rechargeable glue gun that it comes with. Also, the hot glue art that AB creative does is quite cool. I just watched part of the butterfly video and was impressed by how nice she could make the hot glue look. I feel like hot glue art can often look childish if done wrong, but she pulled it off beautifully. thanks for sharing those channels with me! - Eli
Great video, thanks for sharing! How does it compare to the older model? (it looked like you had it in your pile of glue guns lol) Would love to know your thoughts between the 2?

@@MakerBrain It was hard finding comparison info between the two. So, thanks so much! My wife is a pretty heavy crafter and recently shes been doing more with our young sons..so was thinking this could be a nice mother’s day gift from them!…thanks again for the help!

this is better than the first version or not?

@@MakerBrain Hi, I had the opportunity to try both models, the new one tends to release glue even without pressing the button, have you noticed?
Have you seen the glue gun that real terrain hobbies on RUclips have in their craft videos?
No, I haven't seen it but I looked at their RUclips channel and it looks super cool! Sometimes when I see projects like that it makes me wonder why people watch my videos 😅.
Thank you for the comment,

@@MakerBrain I am already working on the kit and I just love the glue gun that it came with.
I am so happy for you! I am glad that you found something awesome and creative and got a great tool in the process.

How does it compare to Black&Decker
It far surpasses B&D. That brand has been trash for decades.
