Used for shrinking heat shrink and heat shrink crimps.
Current one (Portasol) is driving me nuts, sometimes will not stay alight, then flame changes size on its own, likes to fart and splatter so you have to have the heat on for longer which then discolours the wiring, basically I hate the bloody thing!
I do not want to spend a fortune as I am a tight sob, but I will spend if the torch can do its job and be reliable.
Must have a small controllable flame.
My boss uses the Milwaukee heat gun, I tried it but it is slow beyond belief, plus does not get the glue hot enough to run nicely.
