[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1112191, member: 176704"] I have an old glue gun for 11mm glue diameter sticks but it takes an awful long time to heat up - which was a pity because I have a lot of those 11mm sticks that I couldn't really use, and I didn't want to spend a lot of cash to get another gun for those sticks. Then came across this "new" [URL='https://www.lidl.co.uk/en/p/diy-tools/parkside-hot-glue-gun/p42346']Parkside PHP 500 E3 [/URL]gun which is currently available from LIDL at[B] £7.99[/B], so have just bought one - appears to have a real advantage over my old gun because it draws 500W during heatup and thus should heat up pretty quickly, AND, apparently, it can run for a short time without the mains lead being attached and thus be easier to use away from the nearest socket. This one is going down the garage when I have checked it out because that's where it'll likely be of most use. [/QUOTE]
