MAKERX WX743L.9 20V Mini Heat Gun (Tool Only)

Small purpose it's good

Great addition for anyone's MakerX collection of tools

Great product very mobile, worx quality

Update (3/20/21): Used the heat-gun and soldering iron to connect a 24/12v converter to a battery bank via a 4-port terminal block. Summary: I have had rotary tools long enough to remember when the first real accessory for a Dremel was the extension shaft. This is similar in that you have relocated the power source away from the part that you hold, resulting in a lightweight tool. Previously reviewed the WX739L Rotary only tool combo (there is video in the link below): https://www.amazon.com/review/R3HSAXMQJGSDVS/ref=pe_1098610_137716200_cm_rv_eml_rv0_rv Observations: 1) To test the rotary grinder (Dremel equivalent), I used the included 3/4" cut-off wheel, and cut a 1" section off from a 3/32" thick curtain rod bracket. Additional detail in that review. 2) Next I looked at the Angle Grinder. The 2" disc should be sufficient for most small tasks, and would excel at bolt/round stock cut off. I like that the motor is brushless, as that is then newest technology, which makes for more efficient and cooler running. You can really dial the speed down very slow, which I showed in the video. 3) Lastly, I tried the soldering iron. Having soldered things just about my entire life, I was really looking forward to this; however, the temperature seems very low, relative to what the digital read out indicated. It does heat up quickly, and adjusts back down relatively quickly. I need to test this further, so for now I'm rating it fair. One thing to note, you'll probably need to increase the heat much higher than indicating. Recommendations: 1) These systems of tools really makes economical sense when you have many of them. This MakerX combo has the rotary tool, angle grinder, and soldering iron, and they also offer an air brush. I'm sure they intend to release more tools. The 20v Power Share is also compatible with many Worx 20v tools also. The heat gun is the only one sold separately, not as part of any combo. I intend to buy the mini heat gun; the reviews are fair, not great, but I would much rather use a mini heat gun than a lighter to shrink heat wrap. 2) For the angle grinder and soldering iron accessories, I used a 2-compartment Sistema container (link below), and added some foam to hold the bits from rattling around; I think it turned out really well. Drops right inside the bag, and all the little bits are there at your fingertips. Pros: Good fit & finish; brushless motor (rotary and angle grinder); 20v Power Share family of tools; includes a tool bag. Cons: A bunch of warning & caution stickers; soldering iron isn't super hot. Conclusion: At $170 for this set, I rate this 5-stars, and I would recommend this WX991L set over the smaller/lower cost offerings (like the rotary only for $100). Spend a little time to see which kit would be suit your needs and budget.

Sabiendo que es un producto de uso doméstico (Poca frecuencia de uso) y para manualidades (Trabajos dónde se requiere poca potencia) es una buenas opción. Hay de muchas marcas como DeWalt, Milwaukee, etc. Pero son para uso rudo profesional. Lo recomiendo sí tienes la plataforma Workx y requieres varias de sus herramientas. Tiene muy pocas características, básicamente encendido y apagado, requerimos más accesorio, al menos el mínimo.

Perfect addition to my Worx MAKERX tool kit. This heat gun is very compact but it deliver a whole lot of heat. Heats up very fast and is very easy to handle. I used it to heat up my KYDEX holster so I could mold it to my pistol… worked perfectly. Also, excellent when working with heat-shrink tubing. Highly recommend.
