Cordless USB charging glue gun! Is this the Bosch hot snot gun to rule them all? It's sadly meh. Thank you for helping me make vids! Early access / ave
I always buy the sticks in bulk then use one stick. When it's used up I buy another bag. Funny, I can always find my glue gun. One of these days I'm gonna have to have a glue stick sale. Some day.
Dear Uncle Bumblefuck, My pretty girlfriend (who valiantly sits through watching your videos with me) finally looked up from her phone for the grand task of proclaiming "Honey Hes doing it wrong" she is actually a machine operator for an injection molding company and has informed me that.... At 3:28 the red part your finger is pointing at is actually molded first separately and then snapped into the empty mold for the green part. probably made on a different line before hand. Nice that she got one lol. Thanks from a night shift maintenance guy that has learned a couple cool tricks from you.
I worked in a plastic (and later aluminium)injection molding and yes, that's how it's done. That red part is separately made and inserted in the mold when that green stuff is molded or later welded in place with an ultrasonic welder press...
I picked up the ryobi glue gun and on mine "I" is on with the light. So either there was a problem with them and they fixed it, or you dun put it back together backwards.
As someone who has repaired small electronics for years..What you did to that IC made me feel worlds better about some of the things I've done to mechanical devices over the years.
Chris Evans that one line completely took my day from the dumps to a pretty positive place. Yet another reason I absolutely love ave, and have been happy since the first day I learned of this channel (from king of random chat, no less)
No way that ‘kin great thumb detector did that damage. Damage is much too er... precise. No way. T’was plastic virus. Or factory mice. Yeah. Factory mice. Big ones.
Hey, I'd just like to say that due to me regularly watching your videos and sponging up technical and materials knowledge, I got 100% in a chemistry test about polymers. I was stuck at a task, but then recalled how you always described the rubbery bits of tools and everything in my mind clicked.
They maybe should have added a tad more glass reinforcement to the plastic. Of course...How would they know that the package would be opened with a 32oz, Snap-On, dead-blow, whack-a-mole?
Reed Reed patreon members get it first. For a dollar, you support a guy you like and get videos faster and access to a Mini community. Honestly worth it. Even though I still mainly watch them when they're released later
You must have killed it when you hit it and took it apart. I have 2 and both are perfect, under 15 second warm up time and i can get just a little bit of glue out and the trigger doesn't stick. It was interesting to see inside but it's definitely better than you make out!
I fall asleep to your videos, not at all because they are boring, it’s just comforting to know that there’s someone that out there doing this kind of work, God’s work if you will.
I own one of those and you really didn't do it justice, they heat up in about 45 seconds and they are pretty precise for extrusion the 'shipping damage' just broke your trigger :)
Steinel Neo 3 is where its at with cordless glue guns. Uses LiPos and works awesome. I've had mine for now almost 4 years, still chooches like the first day.
I'm using an older Neo1, no idea how long I've had it (years and years). Works really well once it's going however it's warm up is a longer than a wall unit. The upside is it's portable. Edit: Just opened it up, it's close enough in design that I would say it was probably designed by the same company, Steinel copyright numbers stenciled on the board under the battery. It uses a single Samsung 18650, however it's rated at 23A draw current (M letter code) while the cell in the Bosch appears to be 18A (Q code), no idea if that would make much of a difference or I'm just remembering the letter code incorrectly.
Any particular glue you could recommend? Been after a small glue gun or more so a handy one and these look perfect for casual use, might actually bite the bullet on one now.
It's the same thing. I saw another tear down of the this pen and on the back of the board it actually says Steinel on it. www.electrobob.com/bosch-glue-pen-teardown/
Out of interest due to the differing current ratings of the batteries used I opened my Neo1 up again and put a current clamp on the battery connection. From a 20c cold start it pulls slightly over 7A which would be around 24-30w depending on battery charge, over 10 seconds the current falls to around 3A and over a further 5 seconds falls further to 2.5A. 2.5A would appear to be it's idle current draw in a 20c room which equates to around 10w, however the case was open allowing airflow and thus some cooling so real world numbers may be slightly lower. Once heated to a steady state a glue stick was pushed into it with some force (an inch of glue stick in 3 seconds) causing the current to briefly spike up to 4.5A, this fell back to 3A in under a second once glue stopped being forced into it. Given the current draw seen in my testing I wouldn't expect there to be any difference in performance between 23A and 18A rated batteries, and there should be an easy run time bonus by substituting an INR18650-30Q which has double the capacity while still being rated for 15A continuous draw. Regardless I am happy with my glue stick as it currently performs given it's small size/weight, I find that as things get larger and heavier it becomes easier and easier to rationalize not carrying them in a grab bag and leaving them behind.
This thing literally heats in 10 seconds. It’s what I love about it. If I’m holding something in place. I’ll reach for this to ‘tack weld’ it in place while the glue sets or a real glue gun warms up.
@@colinantink9094 I'd imagine that little capacitor he snapped off and soldered back on may have been damaged by the heat of the solder gun, maybe reducing the amount of power being allowed into the heat coils
Big fan of your videos, a friend turned me on to them a week ago and I'm slowly making my way through all of them. It's great to hear a fellow Canuck explain how things work in a proper language... or two... or three. Cheers, and thank!
Maybe the reason for the blob instead of steady flow, would be the no thermal mass (as you compared to kryobie) no thermal mass. Meaning the hot bit is so small when hit the trigger it has to get the next bit of glue hot before it can release what's in the chamber. My wall plug glue gun the whole dam thing is hot, preheating the glue before it's in the tip and just the tip mind.
Nah, it's the pump mechanism. It only pushes the stick forward in the last couple of mm of the downstroke. You can control it, but you have to be really precise ... and not wildlarize it and/or improperly assemble it.
rook wiet well I was trying my best to sound smart, but you called me out on it dam it. So don't pump it, stroke it and only at the end will you have control.
Mine does not do that, and I've seen others to and they don't do that... Maybe the hammer in the begining or the total destruction of it did the blob thing ? Haha I don't know what he did but he f**** it up real good him self becouse that Bosch Glue Gun is AWESOME ! :) It does not blob and it is precise.
EU spec charger will very likely work perfectly off of the wimpy 110VAC USA/Canukistan power, as pretty much every one with any real type approval ( and Robert Bosch will have all those marks ticked off correctly and not have the China export symbol only for show) is capable of multivolt operation from 90VAC to 265VAC, because that is what you get in the EU in most cases, and they are a worldwide brand, they do not want to have regionalised power bricks in most cases.
you dont need a temp sensor in the tip because you can get temp from the resistance since you know the voltage you apply. the red bosch logo is put into the mold that applys the green palstik, thats why the bosch is melted into the green and the red posts are solid and sharpd since they sat in the mold.
I was havin' a smug day. My thought process was: "Of course it doesn't work worth shit, it's 220v, you must be running it at 25% power." Yeah. Mhm. Losing some neurons it seems. Good ol' 220v Samsung INR18650-15's. The capacity's kinda low but it makes up for it by givin' ya the European volt count, and an AC battery to boot. Today would be one of those days I burn myself trying to eat soup. Better just shut up and stick to sandwiches and sneakers and not try to engineer anything or leave the house.
18650 go at 4.2 max voltage, 3.7 nominal. even tho' the wall plugs are at 230 (yes, not 220, but 230, it was changed some years ago) the transformer only delivers 4.2 charging voltage anywhere in between 0.5 and 2 (tops) amps i am an engineer.
As for 220/230/240V, it wasn't necessarily changed, just the spec was. In some parts of Europe there was 230, other parts 220, in the UK 240. In the name of European harmonisation, they specified everyone had to have 230. But they gave the tolerance such that it encompassed both the 220 and 240V systems, so no one had to actually change their voltage.
2 wires doesnt mean there is no actual temp control, you can have thermocouple in Series with main heating element, thats how Hakko does it in soldering iron cartridges for example. You have to switch off power to measure, no big problem as you already pulse power when controlling temp. I still think hammer open test is quite valuable ;)
I've had one of these for just over 2 years and use it once or twice a week. It hasn't broken yet but the battery dosen't last long and can't be charged while in use. I mainly use it for architectual models so have to keep it pluged in between uses as it lasts less than one hour on a full charge. Not sure if it was the temp of your workshop or the fact that there was no glue in the barrel on start up but mine usaly only takes 30-60 seconds to heat up.
it my 12 years as a machine operator in a packaging and box factory. I find it amazing how many industrial glues there are. hot melt, pva and others I have no clue what they were.
Michael O let’s be honest here any shop hand worth their salt can replace a bog standard 18650 with a 12v portable soldering iron from milfuckee and a hammer. Or screw driver if’n the glue pen is for the sewing room and you need to be delicate.
Good for sticking in a backpack/bike box when traveling due to the smaller bulk/weight. I imagine the USB port means you could plug an auxiliary power source in to keep it running or charge it off a solar panel meant for phones. The lone 18650 also means that when the battery gives up the ghost (or if you find this thing cheap up for sale as NFG)in a couple years you can just replace it with a new one like +Brad Sparks said. My only concern is really that it doesn't seem to have that great impact resistance if AvE was able to bust it that easily while it was in the box. Not sure if it would survive an impact that would break whatever you need to hot glue.
Really helps to get some nice fine tip tweezers to hold surface mount parts in place while you solder them. Also I like to use some modeling clay to put down and then jam the PCB down onto it to hold it in place while you are soldering. Just coming from a guy who was trained how to do surface mount soldering even before I did any basic through hole soldering.
Seems like the pen really is only for kids stuff, or minior crafting done by the female volk. There is a regular glue gun size version of this by Bosch, i bought 3 of those for our company like 2-3 years ago. I havnt opened them up so far, but they must have more thermal mass than the pen version, once they are heated up after about 2 minutes you can nearly squeeze one whole stick thru it before it gets too cold. Im glad i did go for the gun versions instead of the pens :x
Heh, now this is a first. Let me guess, the "3 of those" part gave you that idea? Like i wrote those are for my company, one of those cant be in 3 different locations at the same time.
I have the corded version of a Bosch gluegun and it has enough thermal mass that once hot, you can simply unplug it and take it into the field. Heat will last at least a whole stick.
I like the stand the bigger glue gun is taking on that on/off symbol action. The O has always looked like a closed circuit to me while the I looks like an open one.
seems like a neat quick fix gadget, but it's also using low temp glue. I use a 250watt, 200*c Tec 805-15 for everything, and a variety of professional high temp glue. It not only has more thermal capacity, but there's an assortment of nozzles. Plus the 6" phallic shaped body is really good at getting into tight spaces!
Factories are using no lead sodder (What for saving the rice patties from 3 eyed gay frogs), nowa days that component would have gone on easier if ya had put some leaded sodder then wick it clean, then used lead based but I'm sure you were giving us the quick and dirty.
hey thanks man, im an electronics nerd & i had just seen this reviewed on an arts & crafts channel. this is the other side of the coin i needed for a review. good stuff
Now I am completely unsure how much you actually care for how he takes everything completely apart... Do you care a lot, Half or the minimum amount before you reach none at all?
lack of a sensing wire doesn't necessarily mean no feedback. many soldering stations use only two wires, placing the thermocouple in series with the heating element. as a thermocouple is just two different metals welded together, it can safely pass current, you just can't pass current while taking the measurement. irons made in this way shut off the heating element, take a measurement, then turn it back on.
About the on/orf switch on the FRyobi, I had always associated those symbols as being o = open circuit and l = closed circuit. Reading the comments someone had mentioned that on their gun the symbols are the other way around. Most likely not thinking about what way the switch went in because it fit the first way it was re-assembled? After going back to the Ryobi vijayo, the part of the switch mounted to case was never fully disassembled. So no oversight was made in getting it back together..
Holy geez, when you said it’s only good for “The King of Random’s Bedazzled Jeans”, I completely lost it. I’d always notice that back when he used to make decent content that he was actually in.
I have one of these, and apart from blue vs green snobbery it's a definite toolbox stuffer. Saying that, a regular glue stick + one cigarette lighter does a similar job.
The white graphics will be block/tampo printed, as there's a ridge in the moulding between different bits, which would preclude a direct screen application of inkitude.
Another good difference between the Ryobi and this Bosch alternative is not having to hide it whenever a buddy visits your empire of dirt. That glowing neon green practically pulses with "I am prone to making bad decisions, protect yourself." The Borsch at least flirts with respectability.
I worked in the PIM industry and we overmolded just as you describe. It would be nice to be able to retract the detail containing the Bosch lettering after the first shot and inject red lettering into the part through a separate sprue containing red material (all in the same clamping). It would eliminate the need to transfer the part but I guess it would result in less throughput on that one machine and sealing the edges of the Bosch lettering detail to the part would be really difficult because of shrinkage.
Pretty cool that you get the bosch green (euro consumer) stuff for the reviews. True story, I am watching a BOLTR and the wife comes in, sits down and watches a full couple of episodes, laughing her ass off. I don't know if she learned anything, but she was amused.
Try super gluing the little bugger down to the board before re-chooching it. You don't have to worry about knocking it off into the rhubarb every time that way. It's worked well for me in the past. Sometimes a wee bit of flux helps too.

Today would be one of those days I burn myself trying to eat soup. Better just shut up and stick to sandwiches and sneakers and not try to engineer anything or leave the house.
Don't burn your soup
18650 go at 4.2 max voltage, 3.7 nominal. even tho' the wall plugs are at 230 (yes, not 220, but 230, it was changed some years ago) the transformer only delivers 4.2 charging voltage anywhere in between 0.5 and 2 (tops) amps
i am an engineer.
guky667 - you're an engineer? And you've never heard of 220v AC 18650s? Jeez, read a book.
As for 220/230/240V, it wasn't necessarily changed, just the spec was. In some parts of Europe there was 230, other parts 220, in the UK 240. In the name of European harmonisation, they specified everyone had to have 230. But they gave the tolerance such that it encompassed both the 220 and 240V systems, so no one had to actually change their voltage.
guky667 whoosh
Man, I love those fancy unpacking vids
“Some shipping damage” he says seconds after he went domestic with a hammer on that box
2 wires doesnt mean there is no actual temp control, you can have thermocouple in Series with main heating element, thats how Hakko does it in soldering iron cartridges for example. You have to switch off power to measure, no big problem as you already pulse power when controlling temp.
I still think hammer open test is quite valuable ;)
I've had one of these for just over 2 years and use it once or twice a week. It hasn't broken yet but the battery dosen't last long and can't be charged while in use. I mainly use it for architectual models so have to keep it pluged in between uses as it lasts less than one hour on a full charge. Not sure if it was the temp of your workshop or the fact that there was no glue in the barrel on start up but mine usaly only takes 30-60 seconds to heat up.
Tack and Reflow! Hasn't that crazy Australian taught you anything!?
Sortin' the fly shit from the pepper? That's a new one for me - always learning something useful on here. Thanks AvE.
AvE and TOT at the same time ,it's a bit tough to decide
it my 12 years as a machine operator in a packaging and box factory. I find it amazing how many industrial glues there are. hot melt, pva and others I have no clue what they were.
I think I will stick with the Ryobi. I can't see the use case for this thing with no replaceable battery.
Michael O let’s be honest here any shop hand worth their salt can replace a bog standard 18650 with a 12v portable soldering iron from milfuckee and a hammer. Or screw driver if’n the glue pen is for the sewing room and you need to be delicate.
It would be cool to keep one on my flight box for field repairs. I build some of my planes with dollar tree foam board and got glue.
Good for sticking in a backpack/bike box when traveling due to the smaller bulk/weight. I imagine the USB port means you could plug an auxiliary power source in to keep it running or charge it off a solar panel meant for phones. The lone 18650 also means that when the battery gives up the ghost (or if you find this thing cheap up for sale as NFG)in a couple years you can just replace it with a new one like +Brad Sparks said.
My only concern is really that it doesn't seem to have that great impact resistance if AvE was able to bust it that easily while it was in the box. Not sure if it would survive an impact that would break whatever you need to hot glue.
He hit it several times... The first two dickered the box...
Somewhere, a Bosch tech support soul died with that unboxing.
How's the wire EDM coming on?
Really helps to get some nice fine tip tweezers to hold surface mount parts in place while you solder them. Also I like to use some modeling clay to put down and then jam the PCB down onto it to hold it in place while you are soldering. Just coming from a guy who was trained how to do surface mount soldering even before I did any basic through hole soldering.
12:20...... cardboard vibrator with a light up tip?
ehehe i think the "shipping damage".. was a result of your unboxing with a mallet method :D
Seems like the pen really is only for kids stuff, or minior crafting done by the female volk.
There is a regular glue gun size version of this by Bosch, i bought 3 of those for our company like 2-3 years ago. I havnt opened them up so far, but they must have more thermal mass than the pen version, once they are heated up after about 2 minutes you can nearly squeeze one whole stick thru it before it gets too cold. Im glad i did go for the gun versions instead of the pens :x
FullMetalFox You are the reason why we have local warming! Wasting Earth resources...
Heh, now this is a first. Let me guess, the "3 of those" part gave you that idea? Like i wrote those are for my company, one of those cant be in 3 different locations at the same time.
Then it really is local warming.
I have the corded version of a Bosch gluegun and it has enough thermal mass that once hot, you can simply unplug it and take it into the field. Heat will last at least a whole stick.
Gotta love the immediate "whack" after you introduce the gizmo to the crowd. Shipping damage...har har, matey.
You broke it with the mallet ave
Still entertaining Ave and some of these people are just assholes man
NO
I like the stand the bigger glue gun is taking on that on/off symbol action. The O has always looked like a closed circuit to me while the I looks like an open one.
Opened it like a good american mail deliverer, FedEx , UPS
seems like a neat quick fix gadget, but it's also using low temp glue. I use a 250watt, 200*c Tec 805-15 for everything, and a variety of professional high temp glue. It not only has more thermal capacity, but there's an assortment of nozzles. Plus the 6" phallic shaped body is really good at getting into tight spaces!
What kind of battery does it use?
Factories are using no lead sodder (What for saving the rice patties from 3 eyed gay frogs), nowa days that component would have gone on easier if ya had put some leaded sodder then wick it clean, then used lead based but I'm sure you were giving us the quick and dirty.
Nah I think the issue is that his tip was too dirty and full of burnt solder. Gotta clean the tip before you go in
iRobots Gamer yeah you may be right. His tips are usually quick and dirty.
Gotta use flux for that kind of job. It's like lube for the solder. Once it starts blobbing up like that you know you have a flux deficiency.
They're most likely using lead free because RoHS. But soldering with lead free is no problem IME. If you remember to use flux, that is.
The difference in melting point isn't all that huge, maybe 10-20 C or so. But who knows.
hey thanks man, im an electronics nerd & i had just seen this reviewed on an arts & crafts channel. this is the other side of the coin i needed for a review. good stuff
should he not try it out before taking it apart
Ghostinthedark100 you must be new here
Where's the fun in that?
Ghostinthedark100 that's a different channel. Down the hall second door on the left
You have clearly mistaken this performance are for a product review.
AVE is gonna have one million subs by the end of the year.
Does anyone else cringe at how he opens packages but could care less about how he takes everything completely apart?
Or enjoy watching him take it apart I should say
Now I am completely unsure how much you actually care for how he takes everything completely apart... Do you care a lot, Half or the minimum amount before you reach none at all?
Don't forget about the complete disrespect that he continually shows to the directions!
I like the creative but effective ways of opening packages. This one.. was satisfying that he had to fix it after.
I love watching him take stuff apart. I just don't like him saying it's a crappy design afterwards.
lack of a sensing wire doesn't necessarily mean no feedback. many soldering stations use only two wires, placing the thermocouple in series with the heating element. as a thermocouple is just two different metals welded together, it can safely pass current, you just can't pass current while taking the measurement. irons made in this way shut off the heating element, take a measurement, then turn it back on.
About the on/orf switch on the FRyobi, I had always associated those symbols as being o = open circuit and l = closed circuit. Reading the comments someone had mentioned that on their gun the symbols are the other way around. Most likely not thinking about what way the switch went in because it fit the first way it was re-assembled?
After going back to the Ryobi vijayo, the part of the switch mounted to case was never fully disassembled. So no oversight was made in getting it back together..
Got a good laugh out of the cardboard backing for the project at the end .. Nice use of the hot glue at the tip :)
Holy geez, when you said it’s only good for “The King of Random’s Bedazzled Jeans”, I completely lost it. I’d always notice that back when he used to make decent content that he was actually in.
Dude someone seriously needs to pay you some good Dosh for doing the voice over to some whimsical character in a video game or something. Too funny! 🤣
I love that he's just casually gluing a 9v LED cardboard pecker at the end without even mentioning it.
Hits it with a hammer like a beast
"Shipping damage" man you are the best
Only the very best unboxing videos ever!
I have one of these, and apart from blue vs green snobbery it's a definite toolbox stuffer.
Saying that, a regular glue stick + one cigarette lighter does a similar job.
The white graphics will be block/tampo printed, as there's a ridge in the moulding between different bits, which would preclude a direct screen application of inkitude.
Another good difference between the Ryobi and this Bosch alternative is not having to hide it whenever a buddy visits your empire of dirt. That glowing neon green practically pulses with "I am prone to making bad decisions, protect yourself." The Borsch at least flirts with respectability.
@AvE: Europe and the UK uses 230V (at least in Europe since 1987). But many people still say 220V (or 240V in the UK), even if it is wrong.
The BOSCH is cute but the cryobi has the picatinny rails, so you can upgrade it with scopes for range work or a flashlight/laser marker.
International rectum fryer? The tip where the rubber meets the load? You sir, are a wordsmith without peer!
LOL can't get enough of this channel. Beat the bejeezless out of the thing with a big fat hammer "hmm shipping damage" xD
I worked in the PIM industry and we overmolded just as you describe. It would be nice to be able to retract the detail containing the Bosch lettering after the first shot and inject red lettering into the part through a separate sprue containing red material (all in the same clamping). It would eliminate the need to transfer the part but I guess it would result in less throughput on that one machine and sealing the edges of the Bosch lettering detail to the part would be really difficult because of shrinkage.
"King of random bedazzled jeans." I had to pause from laughing so much. That was hilarious but true.
Quickest unboxing yet bumble outstanding
gotta love his packaging opening techniques
Pretty cool that you get the bosch green (euro consumer) stuff for the reviews. True story, I am watching a BOLTR and the wife comes in, sits down and watches a full couple of episodes, laughing her ass off. I don't know if she learned anything, but she was amused.
Try super gluing the little bugger down to the board before re-chooching it. You don't have to worry about knocking it off into the rhubarb every time that way. It's worked well for me in the past. Sometimes a wee bit of flux helps too.
"King of Random bedazzled jeans" That made my day!
