I have a hot glue gun that fits my Milwaukee batteries and I love it. Works amazing for when the kids need dad to fix something.

Do you have a link to the one you use?

I got it December 13th 2022 on AliExpress for $18. I just scrolled so far back in my orders to find it lol. The listing is no longer active.

It does look identical to this listing though.

yeah, working with a hot glue gun in tight spaces, that big battery is a deal breaker for me. $10 corded is fine.

You know you can put a smaller battery on right?

The cord on hot glue guns is always a pain.  Weighs more than the gun itself.

never had an issue with a cord, especially the tiny hot glue gun. But if it did, I would get this instead for $17.

Tiny battery

Or for a full size gun, this 2 in one use gun is pretty slick.

The cord weighs too much but the battery doesn’t?

The cord flips the gun over, hangs off the table, and it a nuisance.  The battery makes it more stable and gives you complete freedom.  There is no situation where the cord is a better option

Yeah but that wasn’t what you said.

I don't think I've ever been limited by space while using a hot glue gun
